Here, you will find some explanation on why and where to use cursors: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_problems_requiring_cursors.

See also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cursor_(databases) (and pay attention for "disadvantages" section).

And also, in PL/SQL documentation: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/issue-archive/2013/13-mar/o23plsql-1906474.html.
