  • Title: [A case of adult primitive neuroectodermal tumor(PNET)with multiple lung metastases effectively treated with ADM, IFM(AI)regimen].
    Author: Ishiyama T, Jinguu A, Matsumoto H, Kikuchi J, Suzuki T, Yamakawa M.
    Journal: Gan To Kagaku Ryoho; 2012 Aug; 39(8):1287-9. PubMed ID: 22902461.
    Abstract:
    The patient was a 48-year-old male with a right subclavicular tumor. The pathological diagnosis showed primitive neuroectodermal tumor(PNET)because of the rosette formation and the positive neurogenic marker.Radiation was administered at a total dose of 50 Gy, because surgical resection would induce the loss of right arm function. CT examination demonstrated a reduction of the primary tumor and new multiple lung metastases. The patient received intravenous AI regimen(ADM and IFM). After the 7th course, both the primary tumor and multiple lung metastases decreased. AI regimen might be effective for PNET.
