Abstract
Left ventricle systolic dysfunction manifesting during trastuzumab treatment is defined as cardiotoxicity type II. It is characterized by full reversibility after discontinuation of trastuzumab and cardiological pharmacological treatment. In a group of patients, however, systolic cardiac function does not fully recover. The reasons of this unfavorable prognosis are subject of heated discussion.
