Chlorambucil-induced pulmonary disease: a case report and review of the literature.

Abstract:

:A 77-year-old man developed pneumonitis while on chlorambucil therapy for chronic lymphocytic leukemia, with a cumulative dose of 2700 mg. The condition improved promptly with the discontinuation of the drug and initiation of steroids. A case report and review of the literature are presented in this paper.
