Does high-dose cytarabine therapy cause pericarditis with tamponade in patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia?
Does high-dose cytarabine therapy cause pericarditis with tamponade in patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia?
High-dose cytarabine therapy may cause pericarditis with tamponade as a direct complication.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
May warrant monitoring for pericarditis with high-dose cytarabine; leaves open incidence and causality in larger cohorts.
Pericarditis with tamponade developed in a patient treated with high-dose cytarabine for acute lymphocytic leukemia. Evidence suggests that this was a direct complication of his treatment.
