Acute bleomycin toxicity
The American Journal of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology
|January 1, 1980
Abstract:
A case of acute pulmonary toxicity due to bleomycin leading to death in 60 hours is described in an 11-year-old male with Hodgkin's disease. This acute presentation in an immunologically comprised host caused consideration of etiologies other than drugs. Previous reports in the literature have not documented such an acute fatal course as a result of bleomycin toxicity.
