abstract={<i><b>Introduction: </b></i>The recurrence of any type of cancer can be a great physical, mental and financial burden for the patients, and can also negatively impact the overall health status of a country. Despite the availability of multiple treatment methods, patients with recurrence of cancer still show up. Which is why, the present study of 2 recurrent carcinoma patients, who after being treated with immunotherapy, did no see any recurrence and observed significant clinical and radiological improvement, is of great importance. <i><b>Case Presentation: </b></i>This study was conducted with 2 cases of recurrent head and neck cancer, both of whom were Bangladeshi female. The first patient was 70-year-old, while the second patient was 59 years old. Both had received multiple previous treatment, including surgical treatment and chemotherapy, but still had recurrence of cancer. <i><b>Conclusion: </b></i>The use of immunotherapy in recurring Head &amp; Neck Cancer shows promising Clinical and Radiological response, with much fewer observable side-effects compared to previous treatment methods.},
