[Structural disorder of dental enamel caused by antineoplastic agents--case report].
Cancer is the second most common cause of mortality in childhood. Complex therapy decreases the rate of mortality, but chemotherapy and irradiation may, however, create acute and long-term side effects. Although immuno- and myelo-suppressive side effects of anti-neoplastic therapy are unavoidable, their detrimental impact on oral health can and should be avoided contributing to a better quality of life of these children.
