Abstract: | From July 1994 to January 1999, three patients with penile squamous cell carcinoma with deep inguinal lymph node metastases without distant metastases were treated with multimodality treatment including intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy mainly with monthly courses of cisplatin, methotrexate and bleomycin. One patient achieved a complete response and 2 achieved a partial response. It appears to be reasonable to presume that intra-arterial chemotherapy has a beneficial effect in the management of penile cancer with fixed metastatic inguinal lymph nodes, but a larger number of patients and longer follow-up are required to confirm these results. |
