PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients HL remission for at least 2 years after completion therapy were included. CBC, lipid profile, urine analysis, brain natriuretic peptide, troponin-T, creatinine kinase-myocardial band, ECG, telecardiography, echocardiography, and CTA the patients performed. Cardiac...

Aim: We aimed to evaluate the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and effect associated factors such as cancer type, treatment strategies, sex, age, parental like education psychopathology in pediatric survivors make a comparison with healthy children. Patients Methods: "Pediatric Quality Life Inventory (PedsQL) 4.0 TM, Generic Core Scale" for children parents, "Brief Symptom Inventory" parents were used. Three hundred two without major mental or motor deficit 272 controls 8 18 years age...
Purpose: Bleomycin is a chemotherapeutic agent that causes lung toxicity. mostly used in the treatment of germ cell tumors (GCT) and Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) childhood cancers. In this study, we aimed to detect bleomycin toxicity early period. Materials Methods: Pulmonary functions patients aged 5 years older who were admitted Division Pediatric Oncology with GCT HL between 2012 2022, received remission for at least 6 months evaluated. The evaluation respiratory was based on history, physical...
The aim of this study was to assess the utility F-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in assessing bone marrow involvement (BMI) compared with biopsy (BMB) initial staging pediatric patients non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), Hodgkin (HL), Ewing sarcoma (ES), and neuroblastoma (NB).A total 94 (57 boys, 37 girls, median age 7 y, range 1 18 y) newly diagnosed NHL, HL, ES, NB between July 2014 December 2017, who underwent BMB F-FDG PET/CT before...
Abstract Background To evaluate the clinical characteristics, treatment regimens, survival, and late complications in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Procedure Eighty‐four diagnosed carcinoma between 1972 2002 were retrospectively evaluated. Tumor status, lymph node involvement, metastasis, stage assessed according to TNM classification. All treated radiotherapy chemotherapy. Chemotherapeutic regimens involved cyclophosphamide from 1982, vincristine + epirubicine actinomycin‐D...
Abstract Background Monitoring for late adverse events is crucial in long‐term management of childhood cancer survivors. A case–control study to evaluate cardiovascular status Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) using tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) was performed. Patients and Methods diagnosed with HL before age 18 that completed therapy were remission a control group healthy children evaluated by echocardiography TDI. Results Total 72 survivors included the study. Median at diagnosis, time, time 7 (2–16),...

We describe a 10-day-old male presenting with drop foot and immobility in his right leg; no abnormality physical examination had been found upon delivery or discharge. Magnetic resonance imaging showed pelvic mass an extension to the great sciatic foramen. Fine-needle aspiration biopsy revealed congenital infantile fibrosarcoma. He was started on vincristine, actinomycin-D, cyclophosphamide chemotherapy. However, he died soon after second cycle due veno-occlusive disease of liver....
Infantile fibrosarcomas are soft tissue sarcomas that diagnosed at or soon after birth. In the present study, we retrospectively evaluated clinical characteristics, treatment modalities and outcome of patients with infantile fibrosarcoma our institution.A retrospective review was conducted to evaluate demographic presenting features, type timing surgery, other survival characteristics.Nine males 2 females were between 1970-2008.

Metanephric adenoma (MA) is a renal tumor that rarely diagnosed in children. Although it considered benign and to have good prognosis, the diagnosis of MA challenging because histopathologic radiologic similarities Wilms tumor. In this case report, we present 6-year-old girl, with mass right hemihypertrophy, who was previously as on fine-needle biopsy after nephroureterectomy. The differentiation between metanephric also discussed.

Abstract Objectives Recent studies have shown that the neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a new inflammatory marker effective in determining prognosis of many solid tumors, chemotherapy responses, survival, and their recurrence rate. Therefore, we performed retrospective study to investigate effect platelet‐to‐lymphocyte (PLR) on risk factors these patients. Materials methods In this study, 246 pediatric patients with neuroblastoma who were diagnosed, treated, followed up during...
