Small-cell carcinoma

Despite its lower chemical reactivity, carboplatin has antitumor activity that is similar to that of cisplatin against ovarian carcinomas, small cell lung cancers, and germ cell cancers of the testis. Most tumors that are resistant to cisplatin are cross-resistant to carboplatin. [Pg.652]

Many of the tumors of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses fall under the category of round cell neoplasms. Among these are olfactory neuroblastoma, sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma, malignant melanoma, neuroendocrine carcinoma-small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma, malignant lymphoma, extramedullary plasmacytoma, invasive-ectopic pituitary adenoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, and Ewing s sarcoma (ES)-peripheral neuroectodermal tumor (ES/ PNET). But there is also a host of other epithelial lesions that are unique to the sinonasal tract. [Pg.262]

Small cell carcinoma (small cell lung cancer) is the most common neuroendocrine neoplasm of the lung. The previously described subtypes (lymphocyte-like, intermediate-polygonal/fusiform) are currently lumped together as small cell lung cancer." The entity referred to as large cell-small cell carcinoma has been eliminated. [Pg.374]

Given the vast number of cell types present in the esophagus, a variety of tumors can arise. Spindle cell carcinoma, small-cell carcinoma, leiomyosarcoma, Kaposi s sarcoma, and malignant melanoma comprise rare malignant esophageal tumors. The vast majority of primary malignant tumors of the esophagus, however, include squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinomas. [Pg.188]

Cisplatin is used for the treatment of ovarian and cervical carcinomas small cell and non-small cell bronchial and lung carcinomas testicular, endometrial, bladder, and prostate carcinomas tumors of the head and throat as well as sarcomas and melanomas. The treatment with cisplatin is complicated by the presence of considerable side effects, whereby the high nephrotoxicity is an especially dosage-limiting factor. Other side effects include hair loss, a reduction of leukocytes and thrombocytes (anemia), an impairment of the taste and hearing senses, as well as nausea and vomiting. [Pg.523]
