The prevalence of hypopharyngeal cancer is estimated to be 2,500 new cases annually in U.S and hypopharyngeal cancer is a very rare type of cancer. Hypopharyngeal cancer commonly affects patients in 55 to 65 years of age. Males are mostly affected with a hypopharyngeal cancer compare to women. Hypopharyngeal cancer comprises about 7% of all cancers of the head and neck.
