Abstract

In these case series, patients admitted to pediatric gastroenterology outpatient clinic with gastrointestinal complaints in the last year and diagnosed with malignancy after the examinations were discussed. Nine patients diagnosed with malignancy were evaluated with biochemical, imaging and histopathological methods. One of the patients, aged 4 months 8 years, was diagnosed with Burkitt’s leukemia, two were diagnosed with Burkitt’s lymphoma, the other two were diagnosed with neuroblastoma while two were diagnosed with posterior fossa tumor, two were diagnosed with Langerhans cell histiocytosis. All patients were referred to the pediatric oncology service for further treatment. We think that patients presenting with gastrointestinal findings should be evaluated in more detail by general pediatricians before they are referred to minor outpatient clinics.

Özet

Son bir yılda gastrointestinal sistem yakınmalarıyla çocuk gastroenteroloji polikliniğine başvuran, tetkikler sonrasında malignite tanısı alan hastalar tartışılmaktadır. Gastrointestinal sistem bulguları ile izlenirken malignite tanısı alan dokuz olgu biyokimyasal, görüntüleme ve histopatolojik yöntemler ile değerdirildi. Yaşları 4 ay-8 yaşında olan olgulardan; biri Burkitt lösemi, ikisi Burkitt lenfoma, diğer ikisi nöroblastom tanısı alırken iki olgu posterior fossa tümorü, iki olguyada Langerhans hücreli histiyositoz tanısı konuldu. Tüm olgular tedavilerinin devamı için çocuk onkoloji servisine sevk edildi. Gastrintestinal sistem bulguları ile başvuran olgular yandal polikliniklerine yönlendirilmeden önce genel pediyatri uzmanları tarafından daha detaylı olarak değerlendirilmelidir.
