Acute spontaneous tumor lysis syndrome is a condition resulting from the rapid release of cellular breakdown products into the circulation due to massive cytolysis occurring before start of treatment. It occurs most often in Burkitt' s lymphoma and T-cell ALL, both of which have been well described, following cytotoxic chemotherpy and other single agent administrations. However, only a handful of spontaneous acute tumor lysis...

Purpose : Tumor lysis syndrome is characterized by hyperuricemia, hyperphosphatemia, hyperkalemia and hypocalcemia due to destruction of tumor cells. The purpose of this study is to estimate in children the incidence, onset time, differences in outcomes between hemodialysis and conservative therapy, and predictive factor of tumor lysis syndrome before treatment with chemotherapy. Methods : Subjects were 108 children who had received...

Seventeen cases of Burkitt lymphoma under 15 years of age who were admitted to Dept, of Ped., Seoul National University Hospital from Jan. 1979 to Dec. 1986 were reviewed and analysed. One hundred and six cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma were seen during the same period. 1) Burkitt lymphoma accounted for 16% of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. 2) The age ranged from 10/12 year to 15 5/12 years, with...

To assess the tumor lysis syndrome in Burkitt lymphoma, we analyzed the clinical and laboratory findings of 17 patients with Burkitt lymphoma who were admitted to the Department of Pediatrics, Seoul National University Hospital from January 1979 to December 1986. The acute tumor lysis syndrome was diagnosed when two of the five following metabolic abnormal- ities were met: ① hyperuricemia (≥8.0mg/dl), ② hyperphosphatemia (≥5.5 mg/dl),...

To assess the incidence and the effectiveness of preventive measures for tumor lysis syndrome, we analyzed the serial electrolytes levels in leukemia (Group A, 15 patients) and in lymphoma (Group B, 8 patients) patients. The results were 1)Serum LDH were elevated in all of the patients before the chemotherapy. 2)Serum uric acid were also elevated in 8 patients (A 5, B...
