摘要：

The cost of treating an episode of febrile neutropenia (FNE) in patients with solid tumours was estimated from the expert opinions of six consultant oncologists in six hospitals in England. Hospital, antibiotic, therapeutic and diagnostic test costs were collected. Hospitalisation, representing 62% of costs, was the largest single factor contributing to the mean cost per FNE of pound 1541. If granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (filgrastim) can reduce the length of stay of such patients, then the savings wilt partly offset the cost of the drug.
