    Author: Dogan SE, Mizrak D, Alkan A, Demirkazik A.
    Journal: J Oncol Pharm Pract; 2017 Jul; 23(5):389-391. PubMed ID: 27105899.
    Abstract:
    Hypersensitivity reactions, cumulative fluid retention, and neurotoxicity are frequently seen toxicities related to docetaxel. Fluid retention may be present as edema, weight gain, or third place fluid collection. Pericardial effusion is rarely seen with docetaxel treatment. We report a 58-year-old female patient who was presented with pericardial tamponade after three cycles of docetaxel therapy.
