Abstract

After the recent advances in chemotherapy and supportive care, survival and the number of extrameduller relaps have increased in childhood acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML). However isolated central nervous system (CNS) relaps is a rare event in AML. We reported a 7 years old child, who presented with dyspnea, diagnosed isole CNS relaps at the 30th week of maintnece chemotherapy protocol of AML. He admitted to our emergency service with the complain of dispne. Respiratory track infection or other pathology was not found on phsycal examination and labaratuary tests. On follow up, lumbar puncture was performed to the patient having no any improvement in dispne to evaluate the CNS disorders. Cerebro spinal fluid examination showed a lot of blastic cell and thus isolated CNS relaps was diagnosed. Cranial MRI showed an enlargement at pons and bulbus corresponding leukemic infiltration. Dispne were resolved just after the beginning of administration intratechal and systemic reinduction chemotherapy.

Özet

Kemoterapi ve destekleyici tedavi alanında meydana gelen gelişmeler sonucunda akut myeloblastik lösemide (AML) yaşam süresinin uzamasıyla beraber ekstramedüller rölapslarda da artış gözlenmiştir. Bununla beraber kemik iliği tutulumu olmadan izole santral sinir sistemi (SSS) rölapsı nadir görülen bir durumdur. Biz AML idame kemoterapi protokolünün 30. haftasında sadece dispne ile prezente olan ve izole SSS rölapsı tanısı konan 7 yaşında bir hasta sunduk. Olgumuz acil servisimize solunum sıkıntısı yakınması ile başvurdu. Fizik muayane, laboratuar ve radyolojik tetkiklerinde solunum yolu enfeksiyonu veya başka bir patoloji saptanamadı. Klinik takipte solunum sıkıntısı düzelmeyen hastaya santral sinir sistemi patolojisini ekarte etmek için lumber ponksiyon yapıldı (LP).Beyin omurilik sıvısı (BOS) incelemesinde çok sayıda blastik hücre görülmesi ile izole SSS rölapsı tanısı kondu. Beyin MRI incelemesinde bulbus ve ponsda tutulum saptandı. Reindüksiyon kemoterapisi ve İT tedavi başlanan olgumuzun solunum sıkıntısı kısa sürede düzeldi.
