Abstract:
Metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the skin is associated with a poor prognosis even after surgical treatment or irradiation. Polychemotherapy can be used as an alternative regimen. We present a 65-year-old male patient with extensive metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the skin after multiple surgical treatment and radiation. A combination of bleomycin, methotrexate and cisplatin, planned according to the anti-oncogram, resulted in rapid partial remission of the cutaneous metastases over several months.
