[Use of cyclophosphane and amphotericin B on patients with disseminated forms of chondrosarcoma].

The results of amphotericin B and cyclophosphamide treatment of 10 cases of chondrosarcoma are discussed. A marked (50-90%) regression of tumors and metastases and complete remission for 3-18 months were observed in 9 cases. Decompression laminectomy resulted in regression of neurologic symptoms in a case of chondrosarcoma disseminated to the spinal column with concomitant constriction of the spinal cord. This effect was obtained during remission following chemotherapy.
