Interstitial laser therapy (ILT) with the neodymium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) (1064 nm) laser via fiberoptics is becoming a more precise, minimally invasive alternative for thermoablation of unresectable or recurrent head and neck neoplasms, but recurrence is often seen at the margin. Combining intratumor chemotherapy with interstitial laser should be most effective using drugs activated by thermal energy. The objective of the current study was to test intratumor cisplatinum (cis-diaminedichloroplatinum [CDDP]) injections given in conjunction with laser therapy as an experimental approach for improved treatment of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).
