Abstract

The  results  of the  clinical observation  of a female  patient  with squamous cell carcinoma  of the  cheek  skin treated  by the  method of photodynamic therapy (PDT) using the photosensitizer of fotoditazin are represented. The patient  had single course of PDT. Fotoditazin was injected in a dose of 0.8 mg/kg of body weight as a single intravenous  infusion in 0.9% sodium chloride. The irradiation was performed  once, 2.5 h after injection of the photosensitizer (power density of laser irradiation – 200-300 mW/cm2, light dose of a single session of 300-350 J/ cm2). There were no side effects after photosensitizer injection and after irradiation. The result of the treatment was defined as partial tumor regression. For nowadays the follow-up period is 2 months. The repeated course of PDT is scheduled.
