Transient left homonymous hemianopsia during treatment of testicular carcinoma with cisplatinum, vinblastine, and bleomycin

This is the third case, reported in the literature, of transient cortical blindness that occurred during treatment of testicular carcinoma with cisplatinum, vinblastine and bleomycin. The presence of transiently pathological computerized tomography and brain scan suggests that this alarming event may not only be a toxic side effect of chemotherapy, but also a symptom related to eradicable subclinical metastases.
