Abstract
A cat with advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma was treated by intralesional chemotherapy and radiation therapy. The 6 x 9 cm lesion was located at the nasal plane and was staged as T4N0M0 according to the WHO staging system of feline epidermal tumors. The animal was submitted to twelve 4-Gy radiation fractions by means of an orthovoltage unit on a Monday-Wednesday-Friday schedule. Intralesional chemotherapy was performed 30 minutes prior to a radiation fraction for radiopotentiation once a week for four weeks. Complete remission was observed. Side effects were considered mild. Association between intralesional chemotherapy and radiation therapy was considered effective and safe.
