Infection continues to be a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with neoplastic disorders who are treated with myelosuppressive chemotherapy.1 In a granulocytopenic patient, fever may be the first and only sign of infection.2 Other clinical signs and symptoms that often indicate an infectious process may be blunted or missing in the presence of neutropenia. Thus, treating all f...

We report a case of acute lymphoblastic leukemia that was complicated by neutropenic enterocolitis (typhlitis) during the initial period of remission-induction chemotherapy. The patient's clinical symptoms resolved after aggressive treatment with intravenous fluids and electrolytes, nasogastric decompression, bowel rest, total parenteral nutrition, broad-spectrum antibiotics, and granulocyte co...

Children with AML become profoundly neutropenic while they undergo remission induction chemotherapy. It is unknown whether these children should be kept in the hospital while they are severely neutropenic to prevent life-threatening complications associated with neutropenia and reduce fatality. We at our institution routinely discharge patients after completing remission induction chemotherapy ...

The purpose of this study was to examine the activity of liposomal nystatin against a disseminated Aspergillus fumigatus infection in neutropenic mice. Mice were made neutropenic with 5-fluorouracil and were administered the antifungal drug intravenously for 5 consecutive days beginning 24 h following infection. Liposomal nystatin, at doses as low as 2 mg/kg of body weight/day, protected neutro...

Almost forty years ago the relationship between the circulating neutrophil count and the risk of pyogenic infection was established. Since that time, through the vehicle of clinical trials, much has been learnt about the etiologies, risk factors, pathogenesis, and natural history of first and subsequent febrile neutropenic episodes. Refinements to the empirical antibacterial management has redu...

Acute acalculous cholecystitis (ACC) is most frequently reported in critically ill patients following sepsis, extensive injury or surgery. It is rather uncommon as a chemotherapy-induced complication, which is usually life-threatening in neutropenic patients subjected to myelosuppressive therapy. A 23-year-old patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia was subjected to myelosuppressive chemother...

The infiltration of neutrophils into injured tissue is known to protect wounds from invading pathogens. However, more recent studies suggest that neutrophils might inhibit the wound repair process. To investigate the role of neutrophils in wounds, mice were neutrophil-depleted by injection with rabbit anti-mouse neutrophil serum. Remarkably, epidermal healing, measured by wound closure, proceed...

Myelosuppression and neutropenic complications remain major dose-limiting toxicities of cancer chemotherapy resulting in increased morbidity, mortality, and costs ( 1 , 2 ). The major factors that are associated with the risk of mortality from febrile neutropenia (FN) include older age, cancer type and stage, documented infection, bacteremia, sepsis, venous thromboembolism, and the number of se...

Neutropenic enterocolitis is a severe and potentially life-threatening complication that may affect patients undergoing chemotherapy for acute leukemia or lymphoma. These patients may develop systemic sepsis through bacterial or fungal translocation across the intestinal wall. In many cases neutropenic enterocolitis is confined to the cecum, but the entire colon is sometimes involved. Most pati...
