ABSTRACT
We obtained a partial response to a transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the renal pelvis with multiple metastasis following a 24-hour continuous injection of 5-FU (5 fluorouracil) over a period of 8 weeks. After treatment we could successfully remove the primary lesion. After removal of the primary lesion, the patient lived for three months. Because the effects of this treatment, compared to those of combination chemotherapy, are mild, it is useful for elderly patients with progressive TCC.
