[Effectiveness of simultaneous combination therapy using S-1 and nedaplatin/radiation (SN therapy) for 4 cases of maxillary cancer].
There are a variety of reports on radiotherapy, combined chemotherapy with radiation (including arterial injection), block resection via surgery, and fractional resection for maxillary cancer, and currently various differences among facilities. In our department, we provide treatment with the aim of preserving the organs and functions in cases of head and neck malignant tumors. We herein report the effectiveness of treatment in 4 cases of maxillary cancer, using S-1, nedaplatin/radiation (SN) therapy at our department from January 2005 to December 2008. The cases comprised 4 patients, including 3 cases of T4N0M0 and 1 case of T2N0M0. All patients were males between 29 to 67 years old, wherein the mean was 52.3 years old. All cases resulted in survival without cancer after the application of the treatment policy of our department, wherein all functions were preserved. It is believed that the performance of SN therapy made it possible to minimize the scope of surgery and preserve the organs and functions. It will be necessary to increase the number of cases in order to examine the effectiveness of the organ and function preservation as well as the survival rate for maxillary cancer after SN therapy.

[A case of advanced maxillary carcinoma with cervical lymph node metastases showing a complete response to the combination therapy of CDDP, TS-1 and radiation].
We report a case of right maxillary carcinoma with metastases to the cervical lymph nodes (T4N2cM0, Stage IV). A 76-year-old woman was administered preoperative chemoradiotherapy, followed by curative surgery. TS-1 (80 mg/day), CDDP (5 mg/m2/day) and concurrent radiation (total 40 Gy) induced a complete response. Grade 2 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia and stomatitis were observed. In the primary tumor and cervical metastatic lymph nodes, no viable carcinoma cells were detected and cancer nests were replaced with marked fibrous tissue.
