Identification 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 کاملSpontaneous Tumor Lysis Syndrome in Metastatic Melanoma
Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) complicating non-hematologic malignancy is infrequent and spontaneous TLS is a very rare occurrence in patients with solid tumors. We report a case of spontaneous TLS in a patient with metastatic melanoma. Clinicians should have awareness of the possibility of spontaneous TLS in patients with solid tumors and should recognize the clinical presentation and laboratory t...
متن کاملSpontaneous Tumor Lysis Syndrome in a Patient with Metastatic Small Cell Carcinoma of the Lung
Tumor Lysis Syndrome is characterized by an array of metabolic derangements such as hyperuricemia, hyperphosphatemia, hyperkalemia and hypocalcemia. The rapid release of cellular components into the cells after the lysis of malignant cells [1] leads to the above metabolic abnormalities. It is predominantly seen after the initiation of chemotherapy in hematological malignancies and is seldomly s...

متن کاملAcute tumor lysis syndrome: a comprehensive review.
Tumor lysis syndrome is characterized by the massive destruction of malignant cells and the release in the extra-cellular space of their content. While Tumor lysis syndrome may occur spontaneously before treatment, it usually develops shortly after the initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy. These metabolites can overwhelm the homeostatic mechanisms with development of hyperuricaemia, hyperkalaem...
