Abstract
The prognosis of patients with a history of successfully treated malignancy, who subsequently undergo organ transplantation and long-term immunosuppression, is uncertain. We report the case of a 14-year-old girl in whom doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy developed after aggressive therapy for a fibroblastic osteosarcoma. The patient underwent orthotopic heart transplantation and remains in remission 14 months after surgery.Entities:
