Abstract
Changes in systolic and diastolic function are noted in asymptomatic patients with normal ejection fraction late after low-dose anthracycline treatment. This confirms that subclinical LV dysfunction is present in patients after low-dose anthracycline treatment during childhood. The long-term significance of these findings warrants further follow-up.
