Abstract

Clinically and histologically complete disappearance of local tumor and pelvic sidewall involvement was achieved in a patient with primary advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the vagina administered combination chemotherapy prior to operation. Radical hysterectomy, total vaginectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy, and paraaortic lymph node biopsy were performed after seven courses of combination chemotherapy with vinblastine, bleomycin, and cis-platinum. This encouraging result warrants further investigation of combination chemotherapy in other patients.
