Oxaliplatin is a platinum-based agent that is typically given with 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin in a combination known as FOLFOX to treat colorectal cancer. It has been associated with hypersensitivity reactions and pulmonary toxicity but is a rare cause of eosinophilic pneumonia. We present a case of oxaliplatin-induced eosinophilic pneumonia. A literature review showed only one other such report. © 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
