ABSTRACT
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome with a wide spectrum of presentations and an even wider array of etiologies. Anthracyclines such as Doxorubicin, Daunorubicin, Idarubicin, and Epirubicin have demonstrated increased risk of HF with significant morbidity and mortality. We present an interesting case report of a patient with a history of breast cancer treated with Doxorubicin who presented with symptoms of HF who had a comprehensive evaluation that excluded the most common etiologies, narrowing our diagnosis to late onset doxorubicin induced HF with on-going recovery after initiation of guideline-directed medical therapy.
