Cyanotic Raynaud's phenomenon with conventional but not with liposomal amphotericin B: three case reports. Mycoses, 1997, Volume: 40, Issue:9-10 Despite its common adverse effects intravenous (i.v.) amphotericin B is an indispensable antifungal drug in childhood oncology. We report here on three cases of painful cyanotic Raynaud's phenomenon after i.v. administration or inhalation of amphotericin B. A liposomal i.v. preparation of amphotericin B was well tolerated by the infants. Spasms of peripheral vessels mediated by thromboxane A2 could be responsible for the Raynaud's phenomenon. Hence, inhibitors of prostaglandin synthesis are suggested for therapy.

Cyanotic Raynaud's phenomenon with conventional but not with liposomal amphotericin B: three case reports.

Mycoses, 1997, Volume: 40, Issue:9-10

Despite its common adverse effects intravenous (i.v.) amphotericin B is an indispensable antifungal drug in childhood oncology. We report here on three cases of painful cyanotic Raynaud's phenomenon after i.v. administration or inhalation of amphotericin B. A liposomal i.v. preparation of amphotericin B was well tolerated by the infants. Spasms of peripheral vessels mediated by thromboxane A2 could be responsible for the Raynaud's phenomenon. Hence, inhibitors of prostaglandin synthesis are suggested for therapy.
