| Zusammenfassung: | A 75-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for treatment of superficial bladder tumor. Transurethral resection (TUR) was performed and histopathological examination revealed a transitional cell carcinoma (G2). Despite one course of post-TUR bladder instillation therapy using pirarubicin hydrochloride, carcinoma in situ (CIS) was found 4 months later. CIS disappeared after another course of bladder instillation therapy using BCG; but, it recurred a month later. BCG bladder instillation therapy was performed again, and no malignant cells were detected in the urinary tract thereafter. Four months later, lung metastasis was diagnosed and an MVAC regimen (cisplatin, methotrexate, vinblastin adriamycin) was administered. However, anaphylactic shock was induced by intravenous injection of pirarubicin hydrochloride, so this therapy was stopped in the middle of the second course. Even though the lung metastasis disappeared once after the same MVAC treatment, it recurred the following year. At that time, 3 courses of a cisplatin-methotrexate-vinblastin regimen were administered, and a complete response was achieved |
