| Intervention | Patients are randomised to one of two treatment groups: 1. Group A: Two drug chemotherapy, cisplatin and adriamycin (doxorubicin) repeated every 3 weeks for three cycles. Surgery is recommended 3 weeks following the completion of chemotherapy. Three further courses of chemotherapy to be given postoperatively. 2.
