متن کاملLate-onset cardiotoxicity of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
An increasing number of patients with malignant lymphoma are becoming long-term survivors following treatment with chemotherapy (CT) and/or radiotherapy (RT). Therefore, late therapy-related complications are becoming increasingly clear. We present three young patients to illustrate the dire consequences of late-onset cardiotoxicity as sequel to potentially curative treatment. We advise yearly ...
متن کاملChemotherapy-Induced Cardiotoxicity: Pathophysiology and Prevention
Along with the remarkable progress registered in oncological treatment that led to increased survival of cancer patients, treatment-related comorbidities have also become an issue for these long-term survivors. Of particular interest is the development of cardiotoxic events, which, even when asymptomatic, not only have a negative impact on the patient`s cardiac prognosis, but also considerably ...
