Abstract

We describe a patient with moderately severe (British Thorax Society Step IV/V) asthma requiring regular inhaled and oral corticosteroids to control symptoms who experienced resolution of her asthma following high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation for breast cancer. As far as the authors are aware this is the first reported case.
