Among male cancer survivors, cisplatinum-based chemotherapy (CBCT) is associated with impaired left ventricle (LV) diastolic function, increased risk of metabolic syndrome, and increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Comparable data in females are limited. The long-term effects of cisplatin on right ventricle (RV) function are unknown in both genders. We aimed to investigate the impact of CBCT on cardiovascular risk factors and cardiac function in female survivors after malignant ovarian germ cell tumour (MOGCT).This national cross-sectional follow-up study recruited MOGCT survivors, diagnosed from 1980-09 (n = 153).
