What is Cisplatin‐induced Hypomagnesemia and Cardiac Dysrhythmia about?
## Abstract We describe a case of a patient with cisplatin‐induced hypomagnesemia who suffered brief asystole during an episode of gastroenteritis. Structural heart disease was excluded. The patient achieved complete clinical recovery after short‐term administration of intravenous magnesium supplementation. Cisplatin should be considered a cause of hypomagnesemic‐related cardiac dysrhythmia. Magnesium deficit may increase myocardial electrical instability and thus, the risk of life‐threatening arrhythmias and sudden death. Long‐term serum electrolyte measurement and appropriate replacement of magnesium are recommended. Pediatr Blood Cancer 2007;49:867–869. © 2006 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
