A 75-year-old male who suffered from adenocarcinoma of lung cancer with multiple brain metastases, developed left hemiplegia. After diagnosis, he was treated with 4,000 cGy whole brain radiation, but soon after advanced lymphangitis carcinomatosa set in and his general condition deteriorated. He was administered carboplatin combination with etoposide and ifosfamide. Lymphangitis carcinomatosa disappeared, and the main tumor of lung and brain metastases were not growing. We recommended carboplatin for an old patient or one in poor condition, because it had less cytotoxicity and retained the same antitumor activity compared with cisplatin.
