Adjuvant intraperitoneal chromic phosphate therapy in a woman with early ovarian carcinoma and pelvic infection with resulting catastrophic complications.
Women diagnosed with early stage ovarian cancer may be considered for adjuvant therapy. Intraperitoneal chromic phosphate (P-32) is commonly used in these patients with few complications. A woman found to have early stage ovarian cancer was given intraperitoneal P-32 in the presence of a lingering pelvic infection, which is usually not mentioned as a contraindication to its use. Radiation damage to the small bowel and cecum developed as did damage to the ureter and bladder, which then required surgery.
