[Intravaginal administration of CDDP in cervical cancer].

Abstract

An 84-year-old woman was seen on June 19, 1989 with the chief complaint of excessive abnormal genital bleeding of 10 days' duration. The patient was diagnosed as FIGO stage IV b (positive metastasis to lung and Virchow's nodes) and was urgently admitted because of massive bleeding, which was well controlled by whole pelvic irradiation (Lineac 3,000 rad). However, subsequent 3 courses of systemic combination chemotherapy including cisplatin delivered progressing disease (PD) with the evidence of exacerbation of primary and metastatic lesions. In such an intelligible case, authors applied 5 mg of CDDP for 13 consecutive days directly into the vaginal wall and made a pharmaco-dynamic kinetic study by measuring the blood and tissue Pt concentration. Cyto- and pathological analysis of tissue specimen revealed that this topical used of low-dose consecutive CDDP was effective for local tumor control even after failure of systemic chemotherapy.
