Abstract
A chemotherapeutic regimen including cisplatin was administered to a man with extragonadal seminoma and cisplatin‐induced acute renal failure. Three doses of cisplatin (30, 50, and 100 mg/m2) were given in conjunction with hemodialysis. Pharmacokinetic data for free and total plasma platinum were obtained. The patient also received one dose of carboplatin and a course of radiation therapy. Complete remission was achieved, and useful renal function returned. Cisplatin can be used successfully during acute renal failure.Keywords
