MANIFESTATION OF CANCER
RECURENCE OF CANCER
Neuromuscular Vascular Hematological Metabolic Involving skeletal, muscular system and skin
2-6% of initial tumors 8-12% during disease 51% squamosous cell carcinoma 22% adenocarcinoma 15% SCLC (small cell lung cancer) Most patients III IV stage or bony mts
70% structure the same as PTH +13 aminoacids on N-terminus Uses the same receptor with PTH Has the same activity as PTH - activating of osteoclastic resorbtion, - increasing Ca++ reabsorption, - decreasing of P reabsorbtion - stimulation renal 1-alpha-hydroxilase, resulting of production of 1,25-(OH)2-D3 then increasing of Ca++ reabsorbtion. PTHrP cancer cell surviving factor
-
IL-1, IL-6, transforming growth factor (TGF alpha), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), granulocytes colony stimular factor (G-CSF)
30-70% of all tumors, but most cases without significant symptoms 10% of SCLC product ADH Symptoms decrease Na+ and osmolarity od blood, increase Na+ in urine
ACTH is produced by 50% of tumors 30% of SCLC But clinically rare Pulmonary carcinoids produce ACTH in 35-95% SCLC with Cushing syndrome often resistant to the chemotherapy
Anemia (38%) (IL-1, IL-6, IFN-gamma inhibit erytropoesis) Leucocytosis (15%) ( G-CSF production by tumor) Thrombocytosis (16-32%) bad prognosis Eosinophilia (rare) bad prognosis
Trousseaus
Deep
venous trombosis
Tissue factor production Normal agent that initiates clotting in case of damage of tissue (often NSCLC)
Cancer procoagulant is a hypothesised protein, most likely a cysteine protease enzyme, that occurs only in fetal and malignant cells. Its activity appears to be the activation of factor X
Digital clubbing Hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy (HPO) -12% adenocarcinoma Dermato- and polymyositis associate 40% SCLC
0,01% ; exclusively SCLC; almost all caused by antibodies to the neural tissue Lambert-Eaton myastenic syndrome (LEMS) antibodies to the voltage gated Ca++ channels Limbic encephalitis (encephalopathy) antibodies the RNA-binding proteins Polyneuropathy Neuromyothonia - antibodies to the voltage gated K + channels Autoimmune autonomic gangliopathy antibodies to neuronal Ach receptors
Palmo-plantar hyperceratosis (tylosis) can precede of diagnosis of cancer for months or years. Poor prognosis Akantosis nigricans ( some cases associate with lung cancer) Acquired hypertrichosis languinosa Erythema gyratum repens Erythema multiforme Erythroderma Exfoliative dermatitis Sweet syndrome Pruritus and urticaria
part of the general adaptation of the body often seen in trauma, inflammation, infection, and cancer. proinflammatory cytokines - (TNF)-alpha,(IL)-1, IL-6, interferon (IFN)-gamma, and ciliary neutropic factor (CNTF) have been implicated in cachexia mediators - proteolysis-inducing factor (PIF)and lipid mobilizing factor (LMF) anorexia and metabolic alterations. Cancer patients frequently exhibit a relative glucose intolerance and insulin resistance
