✦ Synopsis

Two children with disseminated malignant sacrococcygeal tumour were treated with six courses of vinblastine, cis-platinum, and bleomycin. Both had exploratory operations after four courses of treatment and no histological evidence of malignant disease was found. The two children have remained free of disease with normal alpha-fetoprotein levels for 30 months and 18 months, respectively.
