This article from the Qatar Medical Journal discusses a case of pneumonitis, a type of interstitial lung disease, induced by the breast cancer drugs paclitaxel and trastuzumab. The case involves a 51-year-old woman who experienced acute shortness of breath, cough, and chest pain after undergoing mastectomy and starting adjuvant treatment with the chemotherapy drugs. The patient was diagnosed with drug-induced pneumonitis and treated with prednisolone, resulting in significant clinical improvement. The article emphasizes the importance of recognizing and investigating the rare occurrence of pneumonitis as a side effect of these medications. [Extracted from the article] |
