title: [Long survival in a patient with advanced ureteral carcinoma treated with TIN regimen (paclitaxel, ifosfamide, nedaplatin) and radiotherapy : a case report].
abstract: A 69-year-old man diagnosed with right ureteral carcinoma pT3N0M1 (PUL) underwent nephroureterectomy. He was treated with MVAC chemotherapy (methotrexate, vinblastin, adriamycin, cisplatin), but local recurrence and right pelvic lymph node metastasis occurred. Radiotherapy to both metastatic lesions was well tolerated, but the pulmonary metastases increased. After treatment with TIN chemotherapy (paclitaxel, ifosfamide and nedaplatin), pulmonary metastases almost disappeared. He was treated with radiotherapy to remaining pulmonary metastasis. Now 7 years after operation, pulmonary metastasis appears to have diminished.
