Impact of combinations of antineoplastic drugs on intestinal microflora in 9 patients with leukaemia.
(2002) In Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases 34(1). p.17-21- Abstract
- The impact of antineoplastic drugs on the intestinal microflora was studied in 9 patients with acute leukaemia during chemotherapy and in 5 patients also during chemotherapy-induced neutropenia. Quantitative and qualitative microbiological analyses of faecal samples obtained before and during chemotherapy showed significantly increased counts of Bacteroides spp. in 3/9 patients and, during neutropenia, significantly increased counts of yeasts in 2/5 patients; however, the intestinal microflora was stable in most patients.
