  • Title: [Treatment of equine sarcoids with cisplatin in arachid oil: a useful alternative?].
    Author: Spoormakers TJ, Klein WR, van Weeren PR.
    Journal: Tijdschr Diergeneeskd; 2002 Jun 01; 127(11):350-4. PubMed ID: 12073779.
    Abstract:
    At the Department of Equine Sciences at Utrecht University a study was performed on the treatment of sarcoids with the cytostatic drug cisplatin. Fourteen horses with 23 sarcoids were treated in the period 2000-2001. Complete regression was seen in 78% of the tumours. No systemic side-effects were encountered. Although treatment was easy to perform, the ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) principle should be followed when using cytostatics.
