Takemoto S et al. - A 69-year-old woman presented with vaginal bleeding but no history of antenatal DES exposure. She had a solid tumor in the recto-vaginal space, diagnosed as FIGO stage III vaginal adenocarcinoma. After neoadjuvant chemotherapy consisting of paclitaxel and carboplatin, the tumor became undetectable. Thereafter, radiotherapy was applied to the pelvis and vagina in order to reinforce the state of remission. The patient remains free from recurrence 1 year after discharge.
