Background: Patients with cancer are at a higher risk of getting infected the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 owing to their immunocompromised state. Providing care these patients amidst first wave disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic was extremely challenging. Objectives: This study aimed evaluating clinical profile and disease-related outcomes pediatric hematological illnesses cancer. Materials Methods: retrospective conducted tertiary center in North India during from March...
Indian subcontinent witnessed first wave of COVID-19 around March 2020 and second in April 2021. The mutant delta variant was ≈2.5 times more transmissible led to the severe wave. We compared impact two waves on pediatric hematology oncology patients at our tertiary care centre that heart managing COVID-19. Children between 0 18 years, who were treated for a haematological illness, malignancy or stem cell transplant with confirmed infection developed multisystem inflammatory syndrome...
Children with malignancies are facing new challenges in post-COVID-19 era. We report an interesting case of a child on treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia having very protracted course illness complications not often seen standard therapy. It intends to make pediatric oncologists and intensive care specialists wary potential newer complications.Bhayana S, Kalra M, Sachdeva P, Sachdev A, A.

Background: Introduction of Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide (PTCy) based immunosuppression in Haploidentical Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplants (HSCT) has shown to reduce the incidence Graft vs Host Disease (GVHD). However, data on its use HLA matched settings is lacking. Here we describe our experience using PTCY pediatric patients undergoing HSCT for same. Methods: We retrospectively analysed 16 who underwent PTCy from March 2022 November 2023 at institute. Results: Sixteen median age-6...
Scimitar syndrome is a congenital anomaly characterized by anomalous drainage of the right lung into inferior vena cava. This may be associated with other anomalies in form pulmonary hypoplasia, systemic arterial supply lung, and heart diseases. We report an infant recurrent pneumonia who turned out to case scimitar on further workup. The patient was managed surgically selective embolization artery from celiac trunk sequestered lung. highlights fact that should suspected typical chest X-ray findings.
Waardenburg syndrome (WS) is characterized by auditory and pigmentary disorders with an incidence of 1:40,000. Renal involvement rare in WS.
