BACKGROUND

Manifestations
DEFINITION EPIDEMIOLOGY
■ The prevalence varies among
different malignancies, used
■ A hemato-oncologic emergency anticancer therapies, and
■ Characterized by: prophylactic procedures
Hyperuricemia ■ Commonly associated with
Hyperkalemia hematological malignancies
Hyperphosphatemia
Hypocalcemia, and ■ The incidences of TLS in acute
Metabolic acidosis leukemia, NHL, and chronic
leukemia are 14%, 4%, and 2%,
respectively

04. Clinical
Manifestations
RISK FACTORS & ETIOLOGY
■ Hematologic malignancies:
Burkitt lymphoma, ALL, AML, acute lymphoblastic lymphoma, T cell
non-Hodgkin lymphoma, diffuse large B cell lymphoma
■ Solid tumors:
Lymphosarcoma; small cell lung cancer; metastatic medulloblastoma;
germ cell tumors; ovarian, prostate, pancreatic, brain, breast, kidney,
colon, rectum, liver, biliary tree cancers; soft tissue sarcoma; thymoma;
metastatic melanoma
■ Chemotherapy

Manifestations
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
TLS occurs due to a burst of
tumor cells leading to a large
release of potassium, phosphate,
and nucleic acids into circulation
Rahmani, et al (2019)
Hyperuricemia High levels of
uric acid

Hyperphosphatemia & Hypocalcemia
Hyperphosphatemia
■ Cancer cells may contain
up to 4x the phosphorus
concentration found in Phosphorus binds
normal cells extracellular calcium

Preventive strategies
■ Close monitoring for patients at high risk of developing TLS or suffering
from TLS, during the first 48-72 hours of chemotherapy:
- Serum electrolyte levels
- Uric acid
- Creatinine and urea nitrogen
(every 4-6 hours)
■ Correct hypovolemia if present
■ Avoid the administration of nephrotoxic drugs and agents able to block
the tubular reabsorption of uric acid
■ Potassium and phosphorus should be eliminated from the diet and
intravenous (IV) fluids
■ Alkaline urine facilitates the excretion of uric acid released during TLS
■ It is controversial for two reasons:
- Alkaline urinary pH promotes precipitation of calcium phosphate at
the renal level and other organs ↑ risk of renal insufficiency
- Alkalinization also significantly reduces the solubility of xanthine,
facilitating the formation and precipitation of xanthine crystals
↑ risk of kidney failure
Sury (2019)
Hyperphosphatemia & hypocalcemia
■ Administration of IV fluids increases
renal perfusion, glomerular filtration,
and urine output ↑ phosphaturia
■ If fluids are not an option,
management should focus on
preventing further increases in serum
phosphorus levels restrict dietary
phosphorus and utilizing oral
phosphate binders
■ Any additional calcium will likely be
chelated ↑ calcium phosphate
deposition
