All patients received standardised primary treatment with chemotherapy and surgery and or radiotherapy as local modality treatment. Sixty-four patients who relapsed are included in this report. Treatment at relapse was variable and included chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy and high dose therapy (HDT) or megatherapy with peripheral stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) or autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) in various combinations. A subgroup of patients had only non-specific symptomatic treatment at relapse. Both univariate and multivariate methods were used to investigate variables affecting survival after relapse.Results: The overall actuarial median survival from relapse for all patients was 14 months (95% CI 11-16 months). Univariate analysis showed that males had a longer survival (median, 16 months vs. 11 months); patients who relapsed while on treatment did worse (median, 3 months vs. 16 months) and patients who had a longer disease-free interval (DFI) prior to relapse had a better outcome (DFI <1 year, median survival = 3 months; DFI 1-2 years, survival = 8 months; DFI > 2 years, median survival = 24 months, P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis confirmed that duration of first remission was the only factor associated with longer survival after relapse.Conclusions: These data suggest that although aggressive therapy may delay disease progression after relapse for some children, the course of the disease after relapse is usually fatal. International co-operative studies are needed to evaluate new strategies.","PeriodicalId":18531,"journal":{"name":"Medical and pediatric oncology","volume":"40 3","pages":"141-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1002/mpo.10248","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"22188181","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since no recent data on liver histopathology after therapy are available, we conducted a study of the subject.Procedure: Liver biopsy specimens were evaluated and serum liver function tests and lipid profiles measured from 27 consecutive children, aged 3.5-17.6 years, treated according to the regimens for standard (SR) and intermediate risk (IR) ALL.Results: None of the patients had entirely normal liver histology. Fatty infiltration was detected in 25 out of 27 (93%) and siderosis in 19 out of 27 patients (70%). Fourteen (52%) had both. Three (11%) also had mild portal and/or periportal fibrosis in addition to fatty change and siderosis. Fatty change was mainly microvesicular. Siderosis was in most cases grade II/IV to III/IV (in 16/19 or 84%). No hepatitis or cirrhosis was found. Serum total and LDL-cholesterol levels were higher in the patients with fibrosis than in the patients with fatty change (P = 0.036, P = 0.042) or with siderosis +/- fatty change (P = 0.036, P = 0.042). In serial ALT measurements a value of 300 U/L or more was oftener reached in the fibrosis than in the fatty change or siderosis groups (in 33 vs. in 12 or in 4% of the measurements, respectively, P = 0.014, in Kruskall-Wallis test).Conclusions: Microvesicular fatty change and siderosis are the main liver findings after current therapy for childhood ALL. Fibrosis occurs rarely. High values in serial serum ALT measurements repeatedly or a disturbed serum lipid profile may facilitate decisions about the need for a liver biopsy.","PeriodicalId":18531,"journal":{"name":"Medical and pediatric oncology","volume":"40 3","pages":"148-54"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1002/mpo.10231","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"22188183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
