Core Tip |
Immunotherapy is one of the novel treatments of this century, though it can cause many predicted and unpredicted immune-related side effects. This is a rare case of immunotherapy induced colitis in an otherwise healthy male who was recently diagnosed with melanoma and was started on appropriate immunotherapy treatment. Clinicians should keep in mind the possible immune side effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors as they can develop at any stage, which will help physicians in stopping these medications earlier and avoiding further serious harm. |
