One hundred and thirty cases of head and neck malignant tumors treated in the Center for for Adult Diseases, Osaka, and one hundred and forty cases in a previous study of one of the present authors made in Kumamoto were comparatively studied with reference to the history of tobacco smoking (Brinkman-index) and drinking (Sake inddx).In Kumamoto, "Shochu" was a popular drink and the incidence of cancers of the pharynx and oral cavity was markedly high. A high correlation was found between smoking and laryngeal cancer and, especially for the supraglottic type, drinking appeared to have an additional influence. It was suggested that cancers of the mesopharynx, piriform sinus and oral cavity, especially the oral floor, could be triggered by heavy drinking associated with smoking.
