Popis:	Lhermitte's sign is reported in 14 patients receiving chemotherapy for metastatic testicular cancer. In six patients the typical symptoms appeared during chemotherapy: in five patients within 1 month of treatment and in one patient at 2 months. The duration of symptoms ranged from 2 to approximately 8 months. No patient had received radiotherapy to the cervical or dorsal spinal cord. The complication is ascribed to cisplatin, the only drug common to all 14 patients.
