11 patients experienced 40 intrathecal injections of cytotoxic drugs during the treatment of acute leukemia. Tiapride was used as a preventive or curative therapy for headache. Results were found excellent or good in 70% of cases. Frequency and intensity of headache were reduced by half. Tiapride
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a distinct subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and is rare in children (< 10% of childhood AML). It tends to bleed with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and intracranial hemorrhage complication is often fatal. We report a 12-year-old child with
We report a high incidence of subacute, chronic and sometimes occult intracranial subdural haematoma (SDH) occurring during intensive chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) with a monoblastic component. Between March 1990 and January 1993, 86 AML patients from our institution were randomized
Subdural hematoma (SDH) has been reported in 0.5-4% of all intracranial metastatic tumors. Chronic SDH has been reported in intracranial metastases from both solid and haematological malignancies. Here we report recurrent SDH in a patient with chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) following dural
In a 2-year period, 37 of 81 adults with acute myelogenous leukaemia achieved complete remission after repeated courses of Daunorubicin (DNR) and Cytosine Arabinoside (ARAC). They were randomized to maintenance treatment with monthly DNR/ARAC, or to identical chemotherapy plus intravenous BCG.
We present a 15-year-old woman with acute myelomonocytic leukemia without marrow eosinophilia, M4 in the FAB classification. She was admitted to our hospital with nausea and headaches. Upon admission, the leukocyte count was 284,000/microliters with 95% leukemic cells. The bone marrow aspirate was
We present a case of a 48-year-old male who presented with worsening pleuritic chest pain for 2 h. He also complained of fever, malaise, headache and severe neck pain. Electrocardiogram (ECG) showed ST segment elevation in leads I, II, aVL and V5 with PR elevation and ST depression in aVR. On
1) Acute T-lymphoblastic leukaemia and T-lymphoblastic lymphoma are closely related malignant haemopathies. There is a better prognosis for children with these disorders than for adults. There is no consensus treatment in case of relapses. However, only haematopoietic stem cell transplantation
In this work, we examine the neuroradiologic features of the main non vascular clinical conditions responsible for secondary headache; excluding CSF hypotension, which will be treated extensively in another work in this supplement. Headache is not a constant feature of intracranial mass lesions,
