Core Tip |
Anthracyclines may exert a direct toxic effect on cardiac myocytes, precipitating symptomatic heart failure. The case presented demonstrates an example of acute heart failure in a well-compensated young adult who did not at first glance warrant greater than routine cardiac surveillance during doxorubicin treatment course. Utilization of cardioprotective agents and cardiac strain markers such as troponin and brain natriuretic peptide may help to prevent and identify cardiac dysfunction in asymptomatic patients. Prevention of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity and cardiovascular toxicities of other anti-cancer therapy requires multidisciplinary approaches such as modification of cardiovascular risk factors, active management of comorbidities, and pharmacologic therapy in selected patients. |
