Successful complete regression of isolated intramedullary spinal cord metastases from epithelial ovarian carcinoma with chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Indian Journal of Cancer. 2006 Jul-Sep; 43(3): 136-8http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/49397Advances in the management of ovarian cancer by use of aggressive surgery and effective platinum-based chemotherapy have prolonged survival; this may have resulted in an alteration of the metastatic pattern of the disease and spread to unusual sites (e.g, CNS) has become more common. Also, with the availability of more sensitive imaging techniques, these tumors are being diagnosed with increasing frequency. Intramedullary spinal cord metastasis is rare. We report one such case treated successfully with chemotherapy and radiotherapy with long-term survival.engAdministration, OralAdultAntineoplastic Combined Chemotherapy Protocols --therapeutic useCA-125 Antigen --cerebrospinal fluidCombined Modality TherapyCystadenocarcinoma, Serous --drug therapyDrug Administration ScheduleEtoposide --administration & dosageFemaleHumansLumbar Vertebrae --radiographyOvarian Neoplasms --drug therapyRemission Induction --methodsSpinal Cord Neoplasms --drug therapyJournal Article
