Abstract
Sixteen patients with advanced and recurrent malignant salivary gland tumours were admitted to a randomised trial and the response assessed. Seven patients received Epirubicin/5-Fluorouracil and none of these patients responded. Nine patients received Cisplatinum and only one patient had a partial response. The trial suggests that chemotherapy has no place in the treatment of advanced salivary gland malignant tumours.Entities:
