- Abstract
A 54-year-old man underwent radical cystoprostatectomy after prostatic needle biopsy which revealed squamous cell carcinoma of the prostate. However, the positive surgical margin of the pubis suggested residual disease. He received chemotherapy with methotrexate, peplomycin and cisplatin (MPD regimen). He is at present still alive without evidence of recurrence 5 years after the operation. This suggests that MPD chemotherapy is effective for squamous cell carcinoma of the prostate.Copyright © 2000 S. Karger AG, Basel
