[Intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy for advanced uterine cancer before surgical treatment].
Three cases of advanced uterine cancer were treated by CDDP intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy before curative operation. In Case I (stage IVb, G2), chemotherapy was done by BOAI method before radical hysterectomy and by implantable reservoir system after operation. In Case II (IIIa, G1), modified radical hysterectomy could be performed after chemotherapy using an implantable reservoir system, though inoperable at first. In Case III (IVa, G1), the patient was given intra-uterine arterial infusion chemotherapy twice with BOAI method before radical hysterectomy. The results suggested that this treatment is effective for advanced uterine cancer, and further study of prognosis was considered necessary.
