Abstract

A 49-year-old female with non-small-cell lung cancer was placed on adjuvant chemotherapy with vinorelbine (25 mg/m²: Day 1.8) and cisplatin (80 mg/m²: Day 1). The simultaneous intravenous infusion of vinorelbine from the side route and 500 mL of saline from the main route successfully prevented vasculitis and vascular pain.

Keywords: drug administration route; lung neoplasms; vasculitis; vinorelbine.
