Abstract

The liver is the primary organ for the metabolism of many chemotherapeutic agents. Treatment-induced liver injury is common in children undergoing cancer therapy. Hepatic injury occurs due to various mechanisms, including biochemical cytotoxicity, hepatic vascular injury, radiation-induced cytotoxicity, and direct hepatic injury through minimally invasive and invasive surgical treatments. Treatment-induced liver injury can be seen contemporaneous with therapy and months to years after therapy is complete. Patients can develop a combination of hepatic injuries manifesting during and after treatment. Acute toxic effects of cancer therapy in children include hepatitis, steatosis, steatohepatitis, cholestasis, hemosiderosis, and vascular injury. Longer-term effects of cancer therapy include hepatic fibrosis, chronic liver failure, and development of focal liver lesions. Quantitative imaging techniques can provide useful metrics for disease diagnosis and monitoring, especially in treatment-related diffuse liver injury such as hepatic steatosis and steatohepatitis, hepatic iron deposition, and hepatic fibrosis. Focal liver lesions, including those developing as a result of treatment-related vascular injury such as focal nodular hyperplasia-like lesions and hepatic perfusion anomalies, as well as hepatic infections occurring as a consequence of immune suppression, can be anxiety provoking and confused with recurrent malignancy or hepatic metastases, although there often are imaging features that help elucidate the correct diagnosis. Radiologic evaluation, in conjunction with clinical and biochemical screening, is integral to diagnosing and monitoring hepatic complications of cancer therapy in pediatric patients during therapy and after therapy completion for long-term surveillance. ©RSNA, 2023 Quiz questions for this article are available in the supplemental material See the invited commentary by Ferraciolli and Gee in this issue.

Abstract

BACKGROUND

Chronic disseminated candidiasis (CDC) is a form of invasive fungal infection that occurs most commonly in patients with acute leukemia treated with chemotherapy. Recent studies have provided evidence for diagnostic alternatives to invasive procedures and more therapeutic options for the management of this complication. In order to put diagnostic criteria and methodological approach to the disease into the perspective of developing strategies for therapy, all relevant studies published in the English literature over the last 30 years were examined.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

The English-language articles located through MEDLINE (1966 to present) and from selected bibliographies.

RESULTS

There is increased recognition of CDC as complication of treatment with chemotherapy in patients with acute leukemia. Liver biopsy may not always be revealing or feasible to perform in some patients. Among the imaging modalities, magnetic resonance imaging has obtained preeminence as a non-invasive tool for the diagnosis of hepatosplenic fungal infections. Administration of amphotericin B (Amp B) in relatively large cumulative doses is needed to ensure appropriate control of the infection and prevention of future relapse. Patients intolerant of, or refractory to conventional Amp B have been successfully salvaged using fluconazole or lipid formulations of Amp B. A constellation of clinical, laboratory and radiologic parameters should be used to determine response and efficacy of therapy. There is sufficient evidence to support the safety and feasibility of continuing chemotherapy for acute leukemia in conjunction with antifungal treatment in patients diagnosed with CDC.

CONCLUSION

The development of CDC in patients with acute leukemia does not preclude further chemotherapy or constitute contraindication for bone marrow transplantation. Knowledge of the course and pattern of evolution of the disease and adopting aggressive therapeutic approach will likely reduce the morbidity and mortality from this complication.

Abstract

BACKGROUND

Chronic disseminated candidiasis (CDC) is a serious complication of treatment in patients with acute leukemia. Although some general risk factors are known to predispose to systemic fungal infections, few studies have addressed the relevance of certain clinical and laboratory features in patients with CDC.

PATIENTS AND METHODS

To define a subset of patients at high risk for CDC, the authors evaluated the demographics and clinical and laboratory characteristics of 423 patients with acute leukemia. Patients who had bone marrow transplant before the diagnosis of CDC were excluded from the analysis. The diagnosis of CDC was based on blood cultures, liver biopsy, and imaging studies. The authors conducted 2 separate regression analyses on 3 subsets of patients: patients without documented candidiasis (n = 374), patients with CDC (n = 23), and patients with candidemia (n = 26).

RESULTS

According to multivariate analysis, younger age (P = 0.009; odds ratio [OR], 1.96; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.72-2.99), duration of neutropenia of 15 days or longer (P = 0.0003; OR, 11.7; 95% CI, 3.04-45.1), and use of prophylactic quinolone antibiotics (P = 0.039; OR, 3.85; 95% CI, 1.11-13.4) emerged as independent factors related to the development of CDC in patients with acute leukemia. The presence of severe mucositis, colonization with Candida, and administration of high-dose ara-C were statistically significant parameters in univariate analysis only (P = 0.0001, P = 0.003, and P = 0.058, respectively).

CONCLUSIONS

On the basis of the results of this investigation, it is possible to define a subset of patients with acute leukemia at very high risk for CDC. Because of the morbidity and mortality of this infection, a targeted prophylactic approach may be more effective and less costly than the random administration of antifungal agents.
