Etoposide is frequently used in the treatment of a wide variety of malignant disorders. Administration is usually by intravenous infusion, but etoposide can also be given by mouth, by intraarterial infusion and by direct instillation into the pleural cavity. Two patients are described who were treated with injections of etoposide into the peritoneal cavity and knee joint, respectively.
