Abstract;A patient with early laryngeal cancer who rejected both radiation therapy and surgery was treated with only chemotherapy of UFT combined with CBDCA. UFT(tegafur 300mg/day) was administered orally and CBDCA was injected intravenously at a dose of 300mg/body every 1-2 months, 11 times. For over 2 years the patient has demonstrated gradual tumor growth, but has not complained of dyspnea and has worked every day. The chemotherapy has improved his quality of life. (author abst.)
