UNUSUAL METABOLIC COMPLICATIONS OF CHILDHOOD ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA: HYPERCALCEMIA, HYPERAMONEMIA, LACTIC ASIDOSIS

Case report: We present three children with precursor B acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The first one had malignancy associated hypercalcemia at diagnosis. The second one experienced hyperamonemia during induction. Both of them had been treated successfully. The last one had refractory leukemia...
