Abstract
Mitomycin C extravasation produces a chronic painful ulceration similar to that of adriamycin. Pain marks the extravasation of this chemotherapeutic agent when it occurs. A complaint of pain during mitomycin administration should prompt immediate cessation of infusion and regular frequent follow‐up. Ulceration may not appear for one to two weeks after initial injury. Wide local excision with subsequent split thickness skin grafting is recommended. Copyright © 1983 American Cancer Society
