Necrotizing Fasciitis as a Rare Documented Side Effect of Docetaxel

Abstract

Jeffry Beta Tenggara

Docetaxel was frequently used to treat solid tumors, primarily breast cancer by disrupting microtubule function to inhibit cell division. Although this agent was known to cause myalgia, arthralgia and neuropathy, there are few reports since 2005 that published the myositis complication of this agent. We presented a case report of necrotizing fasciitis as a continuing myositis condition that happened after Docetaxel treatment.
