Abstract
Biliary excretion of platinum was measured in a patient receiving an intravenous infusion of cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum (II). Over a 3-day period, less than 1% of the administered platinum was detected in the bile, and 47% appeared in the urine, indicating that biliary excretion is a minor route of elimination.
