To the Editor: I would like to clarify several issues pertaining to the case report published in the 7 February 2005 issue of the Journal.1

The patient reported was under the care of Dr Craig Underhill and Dr Kerrie Clarke, who are medical oncologists at Albury Base Hospital, Albury, New South Wales. Their contribution to the reporting of this rare and interesting case must be acknowledged.

I regret any misconceptions arising from this article, and I would like to thank Dr Underhill and Dr Clarke for their support and professionalism.
