    Journal: Rev Clin Esp; 1990 Mar; 186(4):166-70. PubMed ID: 2114657.
    Abstract:
    Five new cases of hemolytic uremic syndrome associated mitomycin C treatment in neoplastic patients are presented and clinical, biological, histological therapeutic and the evolution data of 92 other cases from the literature are analyzed. The results point out the high incidence of GI adenocarcinomas (65%), its rare appearance with total mitomycin doses below 50 mg/m2, its frequent clinical presentation with cardiovascular manifestations, the therapeutical difficulties and the possibility of a better prognosis with an early diagnosis.
