[Results of polychemotherapy in the advanced stages of cervico-facial tumors].

An association of cyclophosphamide, fluorouracil and methotrexate already employed with success against solid tumours in other sites was used in the treatment of 62 patients with advanced tumours of the head and neck. Complete (40.32%) and partial (43.55%) regressions were obtained relatively quickly. A satisfactory period of remission occurred in patients for whom no further treatment had seemed possible, either on account of the extent of the disease, or because surgery and/or radiotherapy had already been performed.
