- ArticleGarnick MB, Skarin AT, Steele GD.J Urol. 1979 Aug;122(2):265-6.A case of extensive metastatic epidermoid carcinoma of the penis is reported. Disseminated disease developed after penectomy and lymphadenectomy and it continued to progress while the patient received radiation therapy. Chemotherapy with high dose methotrexate followed by citrovorum factor rescue was instituted. After completion of 10 weekly cycles of treatment there was biopsy-proved complete regression of all lesions, which lasted 9 months when the patient suddenly died of pneumonia completely unrelated to the tumor or chemotherapy treatment. This chemotherapeutic approach deserves additional trial in patients with advanced stages of penile carcinoma.
