Abstract

Cardiac toxicity is a well-recognized serious side effect of chemotherapy. Since early reports of heart failure in children treated with doxorubicin,1 anthracyclines remain the best known chemotherapeutic agents clearly linked to cardiotoxicity. There are, however, a number of other chemotherapeutic agents that cause cardiotoxicity which are still not so well recognized in clinical practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
