In 1988 and 1989, 79 children have been treated for induction of acute leukemia. 68 presented an acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and 11 an acute non-lymphoblastic leukemia (ANLL). The complete remission rate was 92% (96% in ALL, 73% in ANLL). Fever occurred in 50% of the children, with positive blood cultures in 11 of them. One child died from streptococcal sepsis. No metabolic disorder was noted. Four patients were transferred into the intensive care unit. After 8 days, the treatment of ALL was continued in the outpatient clinic in more than 50% of the cases. The treatment of ANLL is frequently complicated by hemorrhages and sepsis and needs adapted supportive care in a specialized unit. |
