Résumé
Temozolomide is an effective alkylating agent that is increasingly used for the treatment of pediatric brain tumors. Secondary, or treatment-related, myelodysplasia is a life-threatening complication of alkylating chemotherapy and has been reported in children with brain tumors after treatments other than temozolomide. We describe for the first time a case of temozolomide-related myelodysplasia in a child.
