    Author: Isawa T, Ono R, Motomiya M, Tamahashi N.
    Journal: Tohoku J Exp Med; 1989 Jun; 158(2):149-54. PubMed ID: 2549658.
    Abstract:
    A 53-year-old female smoker with small cell carcinoma of the lung with cerebral metastases was initially treated with whole brain radiation with favorable responses. She developed fulminant and fatal interstitial pneumonia following administration of 30 mg of doxorubicin and 6 mg of vindesine. Histopathology revealed that the interstitial pneumonia was compatible with a drug-induced pneumonia.
