Abstract

A 54-year-old woman with metastatic breast cancer developed veno-occlusive disease of the liver following chemotherapy with mitomycin C and doxorubicin. The dose of mitomycin C received by this patient was much lower than that previously described to cause this complication. As both these drugs are used widely physicians should be aware of this complication.
