[Adriamycin cardiomyopathy in a child with Wilms tumor and liver metastases (author's transl)].
Klinische Pädiatrie 1976 September
Nephrectomy with irradiation was performed in a 3;2 year old boy with Wilms tumor stage IV (livermetastases (liver metastases). Six months later a hemihepatectomy was performed on account of the liver metatases which persisted under a combined Actinomycin Vincristin therapy. A monotherapy with Adriamycin was instituted. The patient developed acute congestive heart failure. The patient developed acute congestive heart failure and showed typical EKG changes after a total dose of 700 mg/M2 of Adriamycin. In comparison to adults children reportedly tolerate somewhat higher total doses of Adriamycin. Therefore it is discussed, if in this case a limitation of liver function by hemihepatectomy and by irradiation has favored the appearance of the Adriamycin-induced cardiomyopathy.
