摘要
We encountered a case of extensive squamous cell carcinoma ranging from the tongue to the mouth floor, in which chemotherapy using a combination of nedaplatin and 5-FU was effective. The patient was a 46-year-old male, who noticed a small mass in the mouth floor in September 2000, and visited the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery at a hospital on October 12, 2000. A 27 x 15 mm tumor with erosion was noted on the mouth floor, which was diagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma by biopsy, and the patient was referred to our department for treatment on November 16, 2000. Intra-oral findings included a healthy-colored induration with a bulge in the area ranging from the apex of the tongue posteriorly for 30 mm, and from the right lateral edge of the tongue to the left side exceeding the median area of the tongue by approximately 7 mm. MRI detected a tumor of approximately 2 cm in diameter in the area ranging from the median area of the tongue to the right ventral side of the tongue, which protruded on the mouth floor side. Two courses of combination chemotherapy using nedaplatin and 5-FU were performed. Nedaplatin (90 mg/m2, total 143 mg) and 5-FU (700 mg/m2, total 1,113 mg) were administered in a first course during December 15-19, 2000, and in the same amounts in a second course during January 23-27, 2001. Adverse effects of gastralgia and stomatitis occurred, but they gradually disappeared with time. The tumor with erosion in the tongue and mouth floor and induration disappeared 2 weeks after administration. Tongue was recovered, so that tongue movement was almost normal. Postoperative MR showed no abnormal signals in T2-weighed images, suggesting that the tumor in the right mouth floor had almost disappeared. External irradiation (40 Gy/20 times/28 days, 2 Gy/day, opposing bilateral portal irradiation) between March 13 and April 9, 2001, and micro-selection high dose fractionated interstitial irradiation (42 Gy/7 times/6 days, 6 Gy/1 time) April 18-23, 2001 were performed as booster therapy. Outpatient observation has shown a good clinical course without recurrence.
