About The Study: This cohort study highlights an association between cannabis-related disorder and the development of head and neck cancer in adult patients. Given the limitations of the database, future research should examine the mechanism of this association and analyze dose response with strong controls to further support evidence of cannabis use as a risk factor for head and neck cancers.
