Postirradiation squamous cell carcinoma in situ of the vagina: treatment by topical 20 percent 5-fluorouracil cream.

Abstract:

:Eight patients with squamous cell carcinoma in situ of the vagina were treated with monthly 5 day courses of 20% 5-fluorouracil cream applied to the vagina. Seven (87.5%) of the women had an initial complete response; however, three subsequently developed recurrence after the treatment was stopped. They were retreated, and two of these three patients achieved a subsequent complete response. The overall response to therapy was 75% (6/8) with six women off therapy from 1.1 to 6.9 years. Total follow-up of all patients was 3.1 to 6.9 years with no patients having developed invasive carcinoma. Because of the high success rate with no associated serous sequelae, this is believed to be a satisfactory method of therapy for women with squamous cell carcinoma in situ of the vagina occurring after pelvic irradiation.
