요약
A 22-year-old man developed severe encephalopathy, grand mal seizures and visual disturbance after combination chemotherapy with cisplatin, vinblastine and bleomycin for metastatic testicular carcinoma. After excluding treatable causes, only supportive management was given, and the symptoms and signs resolved over several months. We suggest a clinical syndrome of encephalopathy, seizures and visual disturbance represents a rare toxicity of cisplatin-based therapy. Given the wide spread usage of cisplatin, this should be drawn once again to the attention of medical oncologists.
