Common Presentations of Childhood Cancer :Common Presentations of Childhood Cancer Bill Chang, MD, PhD Linda Stork, MD Division of Peds Heme/Onc/BMT OHSU February 2006


First Take Home point :First Take Home point Childhood Cancer is a rare disease…


Slide 3:• 1 in 750 20-year-olds alive in the U.S. today is a survivor of childhood cancer. • One in every 330 Americans develops cancer before age 20. BUT…


Slide 4:* Over 3,000 children die from cancer yearly in the U.S. • More than from AIDS, asthma, diabetes, and cystic fibrosis combined Earlier diagnosis and referral can impact outcome More Statistics


Second Take Home points… :Second Take Home points… Leukemia is the most common childhood cancer Brain tumors are second most common Lymphomas are the third most common Then solid tumors outside the CNS Neuroblastoma - neural crest derived Wilms - renal tumors and syndromes Bone tumors Rhabdomyosarcoma - soft tissue sarcomas


Slide 6:Brain Tumors Childhood Cancers Other Lymphoma Neuroblastoma Soft tissue sarcomas Kidney tumors Bone tumors Retino- blastoma Leukemia


Slide 7:Specific Signs and Symptoms Depend on * type of cancer * site(s) of disease * age of patient


Slide 8:Cancer in Younger Children Neuroblastoma Retinoblastoma Wilms tumor Age (yrs) at diagnosis Average annual rate per million SEER data, 2002


Slide 9:Cancer in Children and Adolescents Age (yrs) at diagnosis SEER data, 2002 Average annual rate per million ALL AML Lymphoma Brain Tumors


Slide 10:Cancer in Children and Adolescents Average annual rate per million Hepatic Bone Soft tissue Germ cell Age (yrs) at diagnosis SEER data, 2002

Presentations of Lymphoblastic Leukemia :# 1 4 y/o fever x 4 days ear pain = L otitis, began Amoxicillin T = 104 + chills next day ? urgent care again PE: L TM purulent drainage bilat. cervical, L axillary, L inguinal LNs? spleen 5 cm ?, liver 3 cm ? multiple bruises extremities ? Test Presentations of Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Leukemia: Signs and Symptoms :Leukemia: Signs and Symptoms Bone marrow infiltration Anemia Pallor, lethargy Dyspnea, ?murmur ? Platelets Bleeding, petechiae, purpura Neutropenia Fevers and infections Bone pain Limp, ? walking, irritability


Leukemia: Signs and Symptoms :Leukemia: Signs and Symptoms Extramedullary spread Lymphadenopathy Hepatosplenomegaly Orthopnea, cough mediastinal mass tracheal compression Facial nerve palsy Testicular enlargement Skin lesions Gingival hypertrophy • Fever of malignancy


CBC and Differential :CBC and Differential ? WBC - 50%; nl or ? WBC – 50% + blasts on smear in 80% ? 2 Cytopenias - 95% ? Hgb - 80% ? Plts – 90% ? % Neutrophils – 90% 1 Cytopenia - 4% Normal CBC and diff – 1% Very helpful in the diagnosis ALL


CNS Tumors :CNS Tumors


Presentation :Presentation 23mo female with ataxia X 1month NB NB Emesis, in am X 2weeks Vomiting am Seen by PCP for GERD without improvement No Fevers Increasing vomiting Test


MRI :MRI


MRI :MRI


Brain Tumors of Childhood :Brain Tumors of Childhood Heterogeneous * Cell of origin: glial, neural, other, combination * Location: ? posterior fossa: 50% ? supratentorial: 50% * Clinical presentation: ? location ? age


Brain Tumors of Childhood :Brain Tumors of Childhood Infratentorial 50% esp 8 y/o


Slide 25:Nonlocalizing Signs of Brain Tumors Increased intracranial pressure (ICP) Obstructed CSF flow and hydrocephalus Child is often asymptomatic until critical threshold reached Medulloblastoma Can grow very large before detection


Increased Intracranial Pressure (ICP) :Headaches, progressively worsening Vomiting (morning) Irritability Papilledema rare < 2 y/o - head can expand “Double vision” with 6th nerve palsy Head tilt Bulging fontanel (infant) Increased Intracranial Pressure (ICP) In a young child with ? brain tumor: Measure head circumference and observe gait


Supratentorial Tumors :Supratentorial Tumors Signs depend on location and age like in adults; in addition: Younger child: Developmental delay or loss of milestones Older child: Deteriorating school performance Personality changes Endocrinopathies: DI, hypothyroidism, precocious puberty


Lymphomas :Lymphomas


Presentation :Presentation 16yo female with cough X 3 weeks Fevers for 2 months Wt loss X 2 months Exam noted to have supraclavicular LAD Test


Childhood Lymphomas :Childhood Lymphomas Signs and Symptoms depend on: Lymphoma subtype Hodgkin’s Disease (HD) Nonhodgkin’s Lymphoma (NHL) * Burkitt’s * Lymphoblastic * Anaplastic Large Cell Location


Presentation of Hodgkin’s Disease :Presentation of Hodgkin’s Disease Age: adolescents >> young child Painless lymphadenopathy Progresses over weeks ? months Location Cervical/supraclavicular ? LNS unilateral or bilateral Mediastinum ± hilum LNs below diaphragm and spleen Liver, lung, bone marrow


Presentation of Hodgkin’s Disease :Presentation of Hodgkin’s Disease Systemic symptoms Fevers Night sweats Weight loss Pruritus = Oncologic Emergency Superior Mediastinal Syndrome (SMS) Orthopnea, SOB, stridor, hypoxia Tracheal Bronchial Cardiac


What is the Test to get? :What is the Test to get?


Slide 34:HD in 16 y/o girl left cervical LNs, 40 # wt loss cough, no orthopnea HD in 9 y/o boy cough, fever, night sweats Pruritus shins, + orthopnea Superior Mediastinal Syndrome (SMS) = Oncologic Emergency


Slide 35:HD – 9 y/o CT scan with SMS


Slide 36:Superior Vena Cava (SVC) Syndrome in 10 y/o with Lymphoblastic Lymphoma Facial swelling, plethora, cyanosis, ? neck veins Mediastinal mass: tracheal and SVC compression


Slide 37:Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (T-cell, thymus) • rapid onset • rapid response Same boy 1 week after initial treatment


Burkitt’s Lymphoma :Burkitt’s Lymphoma B-cell origin > 5 y/o Abdominal mass Large mass + ? LNs Cecum or appendix Nasopharynx Tumor lysis syndrome ? Uric acid, phosphorus, creatinine Treatment can precipitate renal failure = Oncologic Emergency

Slide 65:Over 70% of children diagnosed with cancer will be cured of their disease. 1 in every 1000 young adults alive in the U.S. today is a survivor of childhood cancer. Children should be followed throughout adulthood for potential late effects of therapy and second malignancies. Concluding Remarks
