[A case of effective chemotherapy with CDDP and VDS for metastatic lesions of the lung and spleen and simultaneous resection].
A case of 51-year-old woman, she was suffered from primary parotic cancer and the right parotic gland was resected in 1980, and pulmonary metastatic nodule was also operated in 1982. She was admitted in our institute with complaint of bloody sputum and cough in 1989, and diagnosed as pulmonary and splenic metastasis of parotic cancer. Two courses of combined chemotherapy, with CDDP by administration through bronchial artery, with CDDP and VDS by a systematic intravenous injection, was done. With these therapies, partial responses were obtained in the metastatic lesions, so spleen and left lower lobe of lung were resected. In the histological examination of the resected tumors, tumor cells were nearly disappeared, and we obtained Ef-2 effect according to the general rule for clinical and pathological record of lung cancer. She was discharged after one more chemotherapy and with no sign of recurrence now. We reported this case because of the possibility of the effective adjuvant therapy of the case with multiple lesions of cancer metastasis, and the rare case of splenic metastasis.
