Q

lymphoma workup

A

ultrasound of nodes
excisional bx > FNA

PET/BMBx/LP will depend on lymphoma. If more aggresive, will need PET.

may be indolent, common

19
Q

MGUS

A

<10% marrow, no CRAB criteria, protein <3g

IgG is low risk ~1 %developing
hold BMBx?
monitor q6 months

20
Q

smoldering MM

A

> 10% marrow or M-spike >3g
tx controversial

21
Q

plasmacytoma

A

single plasma cell lesion
tx with rad

22
Q

MM

A

CRAB criteria
elevated free Light chain ratio 1:100
dx: SPEP, UPEP, free light chain ratio
bone surveys v PET

tx: dex, lenalidomide, bortezomib, ASA, bisphosphonate
consider auto transplant when in remission, continue lenalidomide

23
Q

MM

A

CRAB criteria
elevated free Light chain ratio 1:100
dx: SPEP, UPEP, free light chain ratio
bone surveys v PET

tx: dex, lenalidomide, bortezomib, ASA, bisphosphonate
consider auto transplant when in remission, continue lenalidomide
-allo
- CAR-T

note risk of thrombosis with lenalidomide so put on aspirin***

24
Q

M spike

A

POEMS
cryo

25
Q

Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma/Waldenstroms

A

hyperviscosity sx
tx with ritux and plasampheresis

manifestations
hyperviscosity
peripheral neuropathy
cold agglutinin diseasse
cryo
amylod deposition

26
Q

amyloid

A

tx essentially as MM if 2/2 light chains

27
Q

bortezonib

A

neuropathy

28
Q

lenalidomide

A

thrombosis, bad in pregnancy

29
Q

bortezomib

A

neuropathy

30
Q

MDS

A

hypercellular marrow with dysplasia
variably progressive

teardrop cells
dohle bodies without infection
giant platelets
hyper or hypolobed granulocytes
macrocytosis

sweet syndrome– neutrophilic dermatitis, fever

tx” growth factors for low risk
hypomethylating agents
chronic transfusions
ppx antibiotics?

allo stem cell transplant if young
hypoplastic MDS may need IS as looks like aplastic anemia

31
Q

5q- syndrome***

A

anemia, thrombocytosis
tx: lenolidomide

32
Q

CMML

A

persistent peripheral monocytosis, splenomegaly, high risk for AML***

33
Q

complications:
–infection, bleeding/DIC
–leukostasis –> cardiopulmonary or CNS
—–tx: leukpophresis

tx induction chemo, consolidation, allogenic transplant if possible
TLS risk

35
Q

acute promyelocytic leukemia

A

PML-RARa mutation t(15;17)responds to all-trans retinoic acid

36
Q

acute promyelocytic leukemia

A

PML-RARa mutation t(15;17)responds to all-trans retinoic acid. also give arsenic trioxide.
-treat when suspected as reduces dic risk
- differentiation syndrome – give steroids

37
Q

ALL

A

> 20% blasts in bone marrow +/-mass lesion
B and T cell - stain for TdT

-b cell more common 75%

often with cns involvement

philadelphia chromosome/imatinib

38
Q

ALL complications

A

often curable

secondary cancer
heart disease
metabolic syndrome
osteopenia

39
Q

hairy cell leukemia

A

massive splenomegaly
infection/neutropenia risk

previously TRAP positive now CD11c, CD103 positive
single round of cladribine can be curative

40
Q

large granular lymphocytic leukemia

-if no LHL, feltys syndrome
cmv associated

tx: cyclophosphamide and mtx

41
Q

CML

A

multiple myeloid forms, often >!00k, associated with anemia, thrombocytosis, and massive splenomegaly
BCR-ABL1 fusion gene t(9;22) usually p210
chronic –> accelerated–>blast crisis

tx: imatinib
-monitor BCR-ABL burden
-allogenic transplant if fails TKI therapy

42
Q

primary myelofibrosis

A

fatigue, anorexia, splenomegaly, depression
leukperythroblalstosis on smear (immature forms, teardrops)

curative allogenetic SCT is curative
otherwise ruxolitinib – Jak inh
interferon alpha
splenic radiation
supportive transfusions

43
Q

stem cell transplant

A

auto
high-dose chemo with rescue with previously collected stem cells received the following days

infection risk (neutropenia), transfusion needs, mucositis

allo-transplant
may be umatched unrelated donors or related with HLA typing
allows for graft v disease effects
risks include above plus GVHD, PTLD, vasocclusive disease of the liver, and associated need for long term IS

acute GVHD – GI, skin, liver
chronic - above + msk/sclerodermic changes and lung disease

44
Q

cytokine release syndrome

A

edema, fever, hypotension
neuro changes – catatonia?
