title: [Progressive pulmonary fibrosis due to combined treatment with BCNU, cyclophosphospahmide and cytosin-arabinoside (author's transl)].
abstract: Two patients treated for acute leukaemia with BCNU, cyclophosphamide and cytosin-arabinoside are reported, in whom pulmonary fibrosis developed and progressed during therapy. The development of lung fibrosis during combined treatment, together with serological exclusion of other diseases known to be associated with pulmonary fibrosis, make a causal connection between the treatment and the fibrosis very probable.
