[Severe intoxication after combined chemotherapy of a sigma-adenocarcinoma with peptichemio and 5-fluorouracil (author's transl)].
After perioperative adjuvant chemotherapy of a sigma-adenocarcinoma with 400 mg peptichemio and 500 mg 5-fluorouracil a 61-year-old woman developed a severe intoxication: myelosuppression with pancytopenia, gastroenteritis and ulcerative proctitis, toxic hepato- and myocardiopathy, impaired renal function and alopecia. As a result of reduced resistance pneumonias, urinary tract infection, sepsis, cytomegaly infection and candidiasis of the oral mucosa occurred. The toxic effects are attributed mainly to the high dose of peptichemio.
