摘要
Abstract. A 70‐year‐old male with regionally recurrent Merkel cell cancer obtained a complete remission with three cycles of VP16 and cisplatin. His response was consolidated with local radiation therapy. Two additional patients have been reported to have responded to the same combination. Chemotherapy consisting of either cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and doxorubicin or VP16 and cisplatin should be considered in locally recurrent Merkel cell cancer. 1990 American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, Inc.
