Unexpected dementia following prophylactic cranial irradiation for small cell lung cancer: case report.

abstract：BACKGROUND:In most patients with recurrent glioma chemotherapy is the only remaining treatment option. In general results of chemotherapy in these patients are poor, and trials on new regimens are indicated. Because relatively good results have been achieved with combinations of platin compounds and etoposide, we inves...
