Abstract

Temozolomide (TMZ) is a standard of care treatment for Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM). We report a fatal outcome of a 55 years old female with GBM who developed persistent aplastic anemia (AA) while being treated with TMZ. This case highlights the possibility of a dose-independent and fatal AA secondary to TMZ.
