Circulating plasma platinum more than 10 years after cisplatin treatment for testicular cancer

J A Gietema et al. Lancet. 2000.

Abstract

We have shown in patients cured from metastatic testicular cancer that up to 20 years after administration of cisplatin-containing chemotherapy, circulating platinum is still detectable in plasma. This finding may influence the development of long-term, treatment-related side-effects.
