title: [Experimental study on the use of cisplatin in oncology].
abstract: 29 patients affected by ovarian (9 cases), head and neck, and miscellaneous neoplasms were treated with Cisplatinum. Most cases had been previously treated with different drugs. Complete and partial remission achieved significative results in 4, 7 and 9 ovarian patients. In the patients with head and neck tumor no complete remission and 4 partial remissions were obtained. These observations confirm that Cisplatinum may be a useful drug in chemotherapy of cancer.
