Cf. Vongunten et al., RAYNAUD PHENOMENON IN 3 PATIENTS WITH ACQUIRED IMMUNE-DEFICIENCY SYNDROME-RELATED KAPOSI-SARCOMA TREATED WITH BLEOMYCIN, Cancer, 72(6), 1993, pp. 2004-2006
The authors report three cases of Raynaud phenomenon that developed du
ring doxorubicin, bleomycin, and vincristine (ABV) therapy for acquire
d immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related Kaposi sarcoma. Although R
aynaud phenomenon is well documented as a side effect of bleomycin, vi
nblastine, and cisplatin chemotherapy for germ cell neoplasms, it has
not been widely documented in patients with AIDS.
