title: [A case of pulmonary metastases of breast cancer responding remarkably to combined chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil and low-dose cisplatin].
abstract: A 46-year-old-woman underwent breast preserving mastectomy for advanced breast cancer. Seven months after operation, pulmonary metastases were found. The patient was admitted and treated with combined chemotherapy of 5-fluorouracil and low-dose cisplatin for 4 weeks.
