title: Cisplatin pasting for radiotherapy of penile cancer.
abstract: A case of penile cancer (Jackson's stage II) was treated with cisplatin pasta along with radiotherapy. The cancerous masses dissolved by the time of 27 Gy (913 ret) of radiotherapy, and the initial plan of penile amputation was abandoned. This cisplatin pasting would probably be a useful technique in radiotherapy of penile cancer, preserving the function of the organ.
