Infection, hemorrhage and adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are pulmonary complications occurring after remission induction therapy for acute leukemia. The aim of this study was to analyze the incidence of these causes by serial roentgenogram, clinical, microbiological and laboratory tests
We report a case of drug induced pneumonitis caused by oral etoposide. A 63-year-old man was admitted to our hospital in August 1991 because of low grade fever and dyspnea. He underwent right upper lobectomy on Nov. 27th, 1990 for lung cancer (squamous cell carcinoma), and courses of adjuvant
This study investigated the effects of hypertension and water loading on etoposide-induced, reversible blood-brain barrier disruption in a rat model. Twenty-nine animals were divided into four groups: group 1--intracarotid (i.c.) injection of saline followed in 1 h by 5 ml i.c. water; group 2--i.c.
This report describes two infants with recurrent pulmonary edema after umbilical cord blood transplantation (CBT). A 3-month-old boy and a 7-month-old boy with infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia underwent CBT from an unrelated donor in the first complete remission. The conditioning regimen
The esthesioneuroblastoma is a rare neuroendocrine tumor that derives from the olfactory cells. In the last 20 years, around 1,000 cases have been described, with an overall survival rate of 60-70% at 5 years. The most common symptoms are nasal bleeding, nasal clogging and, in locally advanced
Forty patients with germ cell tumors were treated with carboplatin 1500-2000 mg/m2, etoposide 1200-1600 mg/m2 and ifosfamide 0-10 g/m2 plus mesna followed by autologous stem cell reinfusion. A pruritic maculopapular rash was observed in 10 patients usually starting on the last day of chemotherapy.
Seventeen patients were given lower dose and intermittent oral administration of estramustine phosphate (6 mg/kg/day) and etoposide (30 mg/m2/day) for 7 days. Then administration was discontinued for 7 days. This administration cycle was repeated. Therapy was continued until evidence of disease
A 70-year-old man was given a diagnosis of small cell lung cancer because of the findings of examination of a specimen obtained by transbronchial lung biopsy from the rS4 a. He was treated with 2 courses of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (CBDCA, Etoposide) and underwent right middle lobectomy. He was then
A 60-year-old man with a history of diabetes insipidus presented with a left groin mass, leg edema, and retroperitoneal adenopathy. Biopsy results of the involved lymph nodes were typical of eosinophilic granuloma. The patient was treated with etoposide and prednisone and had a complete regression
Etoposide (VP-16-213) has been used in the treatment of many solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. When used in high doses and in conjunction with autologous bone marrow transplantation, this agent has activity against several treatment-resistant cancers including malignant glioma. In six of
A Phase II trial using interleukin 1alpha (IL-1alpha) and etoposide for patients with relapsed osteosarcoma (OS) was undertaken to assess the feasibility and tolerability of combination therapy with biotherapy and chemotherapy. Nine patients with histologically proven relapsed OS were treated with
BACKGROUND
The combination of oral estramustine and oral etoposide has generated response rates of 40-50% in patients with hormone refractory prostate cancer in single institution trials. This study tested this regimen in a multi-institutional setting.
METHODS
Fifty-five patients were accrued over a
A 26-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with cervical tumor and facial edema on July 8, 1991. Examination of chest X-ray and chest CT showed a bulky tumor in the mediastinum and pleural effusion. A pathological diagnosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (diffuse large cell, immunoblastic type) was

Severe respiratory distress appeared in a 14-year-old girl with acute lymphoblastic leukemia 2 months after receiving syngeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) with a conditioning regimen of a high-dose of busulfan, etoposide and nimustine. Rapid body-weight gain and edema, especially in eyelids
