Acute tumor lysis syndrome secondary to a single-dose methylprednisolone in acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
There are very few reports in the English literature regarding cases with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who developed acute tumor lysis syndrome (ATLS) after a single dose of steroid at the beginning of the chemotherapy [1-6]. Herein, we present a child with T-cell ALL who developed ATLS after methylprednisolone (2 mg/kg) therapy. A seven-year-old, previously healthy girl was admitted to o...
متن کاملIdentification of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia at low risk for tumor lysis syndrome
Background and Objective: Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) could occur before, during or after the initiation of chemotherapy in patients with cancers especially those with hematologic malignancies. This study was designed to determine the prevalence and predictors of TLS in children with Acute Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (ALL) and to develop a sensitive prediction rule to identify patients at low risk of...
متن کاملRadiation-Induced Tumor Lysis Syndrome in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) is an important oncological emergency that is usually observed with hematological malignancies and rarely with solid tumors. It can be induced either by therapy or spontaneously. Radiotherapy-induced TLS has been rarely reported in the literature. Here we present a patient with a diagnosis of metastatic prostate cancer and chronic lymphocytic leukemia complicated with...
متن کاملTumor lysis syndrome and acute anemia in an African-American man with chronic lymphocytic leukemia
Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) is a life-threating hematologic emergency caused by massive lysis of tumor cells into the blood stream. TLS can be prevented and treated with rasburicase. Rasburicase-induced hemolysis and methemoglobinemia is a rare but serious complication. Screening for G6PD should be considered for patients at higher risk for G6PD deficiency who may be also at high risk for TLS on...
متن کاملHyperuricemia and acute renal failure secondary to spontaneous tumor lysis syndrome in myelodysplastic syndrome
Background: This is a rare instance of acute renal failure caused by hyperuricemia due to spontaneous tumor lysis syndrome and the first case of spontaneous tumor lysis syndrome reported in myelodysplastic syndrome. Case Presentation: A 53-year-old man presented with abrupt oligouria. Laboratory findings on admission suggested hyperuricemia, hyperphosphatemia, hypocalcinemia, metabolic acidosis...
