We describe two children with previous anthracycline exposure for cancer who presented with acute decompensated left ventricular dysfunction. Both patients had evidence of dilated cardiomyopathy and required mechanical ventilation and inotropic support. Parvovirus B19 was detected by polymerase chain reaction of the blood. After several weeks of ventilation and inotropic support, both patients were...
Anthracycline-treated childhood cancer survivors experience cardiac damage that results in decreased left ventricular (LV) mass, leading to increased LV wall stress, which underlies their greater risk of cardiomyopathy. Many of these survivors also are at risk of growth hormone (GH) abnormalities from cranial irradiation exposure, although it is unknown whether such exposure is associated with cardiotoxicity...
