&& and || in switch statement

I've tried doing some research on this topic but theres a suprisingly low amount of information. I have a switch statement, and I want a certain block to trigger if one of 2 conditions is true. I could just have identical blocks checking each condition, but it looks kind of redundant.

case KeyEvent.VK_NUMPAD0:
     //Identical Code
     break;

case KeyEvent.VK_INSERT:
     //Identical Code
     break;

Is there a way to combine the two statements to avoid repeating identical code?
