Long-lasting response to cis-platinum in recurrent malignant thymoma: case report.

Abstract
A patient who had received irradiation for inoperable invasive thymoma was treated with cis-platinum after mediastinal and endothoracic recurrence two years from diagnosis. A quick and long-lasting response was observed, which is still present. Systematic phase II trials with cis-platinum in invasive thymoma are suggested.
