Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Report of a rare and serious complication of chemotherapy with daunorubicin and cytarabine (DA regimen).
METHODS: We report a special case of a patient diagnosed chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) with accelerated phase, who simultaneously suffered from acute pleural and pericardial effusion while receiving chemotherapeutic treatment with DA regimen.
RESULTS: Following treatment with DA regimen, the patient had the symptoms of chest distress and shortness of breath, followed by respiratory failure and pericardial tamponade. The patient's condition was improved when treated with the puncturation through the pericardium and pleural cavity, coupled with glucocorticosteroid treatment.
CONCLUSIONS: Physicians should be made aware of the potential for emergency pleural and pericardial effusion caused by daunorubicin and cytarabine in order to accurately diagnose and treat these conditions and thereby decrease mortality related to chemotherapy.
