We report our second patient treated successfully with a new combined chemotherapy regimen of intra-arterial pirarubicin and nedaplatin plus intravenous methotrexate and vincristine for squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the bladder. A 57-year-old man consulted our hospital in September 2005 for treatment of bladder tumors diagnosed in another hospital. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed an extravesical invasive tumor on the anterior wall of the bladder, and clinical stage T2bN0M0 was diagnosed. Transurethral cold-cup biopsy was performed, and pathological examination revealed SCC. After he received two courses of this new combined intra-arterial chemotherapy regimen using nedaplatin, tumors were detected in MRI and cystoscopy. We performed partial cystectomy in January 2006. Postoperative pathological examination revealed no tumor cells (pathological CR). There were no severe adverse reactions by this chemotherapy regimen. He has been alive without evidence of disease.
