Multiple urolithiases in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia

2021 
Current study is a case report of a 5-year-old patient with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and multiple urolithiasis. Complex factors, including glucocorticoid-induced hypercalciuria, fluid restriction for the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone, and long-term bed rest, predispose children with ALL to develop urolithiasis. To prevent urinary urolithiasis formation, urinary calcium excretion should be monitored during chemotherapy and when administering glucocorticoids.
