Successful chemotherapy of recurrent intracranial germinoma with spinal metastases.
Overview
abstract
A recurrent CNS germinoma with subependymal and spinal metastases was treated by combination of cis-platinum, bleomycin, and vinblastine, resulting in disappearance of intracranial and spinal tumor. Second intracranial relapse responded again to the same combination chemotherapy. Response of spinal metastases to this combination chemotherapy has not been reported previously.
