BACKGROUND: Pulmonary complications and infections frequently affect patients
with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Common characteristics can
predispose these patients to the development of severe respiratory illness, which
may be particularly relevant during the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19)
pandemic. METHODS: A scoping review was performed to assess the impact of
pulmonary comorbidities and adverse respiratory outcomes in HNSCC patients.
RESULTS: Advanced age, history of tobacco and alcohol abuse, and cardiopulmonary
comorbidities are significant risk factors for the development of adverse
respiratory outcomes. Treatment toxicities from radiation or chemoradiation
therapy significantly increase these risks. CONCLUSION: Respiratory complications
are a frequent cause of morbidity and mortality among HNSCC patients, and the
COVID-19 pandemic may disproportionately affect this population. Interventions
designed to decrease smoking and alcohol use, improve oral hygiene, and
aggressively manage medical comorbidities are important to the long-term
management and health of these patients.
