Combined regional chemotherapy and radiation therapy in the treatment of epidermoid carcinoma in the oro-facial region.

Followed treatment of oro-facial epidermoid carcinoma by combined chemo- and radiation therapy with eventual surgical intervention. Cytostatic drugs were applied intraarterially. After a monocytostatic treatment trial with Methotrexat (MTX), a combined cytostatic program was worked out utilizing two cytostatic drugs, viz. MTX and Bleomycin (BLM) in a cyclic alternation. Usefulness of chemotherapy and its inclusion into the treatment of epidermoid carcinoma in the oro-facial region was found justified principally in the case of combined therapy. However, the selected intraarterial mode of cytostatic administration is attended by certain drawbacks, mainly of a technical nature and is not suitable for routine application. For this reason, the authors have abandoned the i. a. mode of cytostatic administration in epidermoid oro-facial carcinoma and have adopted systemic application and this in combination with radiation, eventually surgical therapy with the utilization of chemotherapy.
