Deskripsi

Abstract Cisplatin is a widely used platinum‐based chemotherapy agent. Its common adverse effects are neuropathy, nephrotoxicity, electrolyte abnormality, and rarely causing thrombotic vascular toxicity. We present a patient known to have small‐cell lung cancer who developed ischemic cerebrovascular accident (CVA) after receiving chemotherapy regimen including cisplatin.
