Abstract

Epirubicin-based chemotherapy carries a risk of inducing heart failure, although the frequency is rare. Bevacizumab, an anti-vascular endothelial growth factor monoclonal antibody, has recently been widely used in patients with recurrent breast cancer as a first-line chemotherapeutic agent. Heart failure or arterial thromboembolism has been reported as a rare cardiovascular complication of bevacizumab. We herein report a breast cancer patient with reversible cancer therapeutics-related cardiac dysfunction associated with bevacizumab and epirubicin complicating intracardiac thrombi in the left atrium and left ventricle. This case underscores the importance of tailored medical planning according to the individual status in patients receiving anti-cancer therapies.
