Indian Heart Journal. 2002 Jan-Feb; 54(1): 86-7http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/3889Cardiotoxicity due to antineoplastic agents such as doxorubicin, daunorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristin, vinblastin, cisplatin and busulfan is well known. However, 5-fluorouracil-induced cardiotoxicity is yet to be widely recognized by cardiologists. We report a patient who developed 5-fluorouracil-induced cardiotoxicity syndrome.engAdultAntimetabolites, Antineoplastic --adverse effectsElectrocardiographyFluorouracil --adverse effectsHumansMaleMyocardial Infarction --chemically inducedTreatment FailureVentricular Dysfunction, Left --chemically inducedCase Reports
