Abstract:
AbstractOrbital tumors are rare lesions comprising 0.1% of all tumors and less than 20% of all ocular diseases. These lesions in children and adults differ significantly in their incidence, tumor type, and treatment management. Although surgery and systemic therapies are commonly used in the management of these diseases, radiation therapy has become a widely used treatment for both benign and malignant tumors of the orbit. Radiotherapy is used as a definitive treatment to provide local control while avoiding morbidity associated with surgery for some tumors while it is used as an adjuvant treatment following surgical resection for others. For many tumors, radiation provides excellent tumor control with preservation of visual function. This article is dedicated for presenting the most common applications of orbital radiotherapy. A brief overview of the commonly available radiation therapy modalities is given. Dose constraint goals are reviewed and acute and long-term side effects are discussed. Orbital tumors covered in this article include optic glioma, ocular melanoma, retinoblastoma, orbital rhabdomyosarcoma, orbital lymphoma, and lacrimal gland tumors. Background information, indications for radiotherapy, and goals of treatment for each case example are described.

Abstract:
Background: Tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) are the second most common group of cancers in childhood, exceeded by the leukemias. It is the most common pediatric solid tumor accounting for 20% of all childhood malignancies. The pattern and outcome of these tumors in children has not been studied in Ethiopia. This study aimed to assess the epidemiology and out-come of pediatric brain tumors in a tertiary care center in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.Methods: A retrospective review of medical records of children less than 15 years of age diag-nosed with primary brain tumor in Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital Department of pediatrics from January 1, 2014 to January 1, 2019 was done. Treatment outcome was assessed clinically based on resolution of symptoms and absence of neurologic disabilityResults: There were 86 children with the diagnosis of brain tumor in the study period and 49/86 (57%) were males and the male to female ratio was 1.5:1. The age at presentation ranges from 2.4-14 years (mean 7.1 years). Headache was the commonest presentation among 65/86 (75.5%) children while early morning vomiting accounted for 57/86 (66.2%). Ataxia and gait abnormality contributed to 42/86 (48.8%). Among the 41 children whose pathologic result was available, the commonest tumor was medulloblastoma 13/41 (31.7%), followed by astrocytoma 8/41 (19.5 %) and craniopharyngioma 5/41 (12.1%). Six months and 5 years survival was 40% (35/86) and 2.3% (2/86) respectively.Conclusion: Medulloblastoma and astrocytoma were common brain tumors in children, we had the longest PSI and as a result, very low survival which calls for early diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract:
Introduction: Now a days, number of childhood tumors are gradually increasing throughout the world. But in Bangladesh we have no actual tumor register. In this study we just try to find out the demographic presentation of solid tumor in a tertiary care center of Dhaka city. Methods and materials: it is a retrospective descriptive type of observational study. Study was held in department of pediatric surgery, Sir Salimullah medical college Mitford hospital Dhaka from January 2016 to December 2020. Results: total number of the patients were 37. Male 15 and female 22. Male female ratio is 1:1.7. Age range of the patients from 9 days to 13 years. Mean age 135.83 days. Among 37 patients, 29 had malignant tumors and rest of 8 patients had benign tumor. Ovarian tumors were highest, 10. Then nephroblastoma 9, neuroblastoma 7, non Hodgkin lymphoma 3, sacrococcygeal teratoma 3, adrenal benign tumor 1, soft tissue sarcoma in pelvis 1, rhabdomyosarcoma of urinary bladder1, rectal carcinoma 1 and rhabdomyosarcoma of lower limb 1 accordingly. Most of the patients were went through surgery first then sent for chemotherapy according to histology. Conclusion: In spite of a tertiary medical care center in Dhaka city, our number of patient is not satisfactory. Lack of proper awareness in public, lots of patient did not reach to proper center, those who attained hospital, may lost. And our poor record keeping system is also responsible for adequate informations. Sir Salimullah Med Coll J 2021; 29(2): 117-120

Abstract:
Abstract Background: The palliative care needs of children with cancer strongly depend on tumor entity and localization. However, little is known about the needs of children with hematologic malignancies (HM), as a much larger body of publications deals with the needs of children with solid tumors. Methods: Patient data were extracted from the database of one of the largest pediatric palliative care teams (PPCT) in Germany. Information included demographic data, diagnoses, patient contacts, symptoms, and medications. Children with HM were compared to other malignancies using bivariate analyses. Results: Between 01/2013 and 05/2016, the PPCT cared for a total of 178 patients. Of the 58 children with cancer (3 bone tumors, 25 brain tumors, 6 neuroblastomas, 9 soft tissue sarcomas, 9 other solid tumors), 6 (10.3%) had a hematologic malignancy (2 acute lymphoblastic leukemia, 2 acute myeloid leukemia, 1 T-cell lymphoma, 1 Burkitt lymphoma). Two patients underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Median age of patients with HM at the beginning of PCT was 12.1 years (range 5.4-18.9 years), 5 children were male. The number of children with HM cared for in the home setting was likely low due to the fact that most children with relapsed or refractory leukemia die during intensive chemotherapy and are thus still cared for in hospital. Time from start of palliative home care to death was the same in children with HM compared to non HM (54 vs. 53 days in care), although the range of days in palliative care was larger in children with non HM (1 to 226 days) compared to children with HM (10 to 116 days). The number of home visits was equal (9.7 vs. 9.4) as was the number of home visits per days in care (0.18 vs. 0.18). In both patient groups, most patients died at home or in hospice. The leading symptoms in children with HM were weakness and anxiety, whereas the most frequently reported symptom in patients with non HM was difficulty to move around (i.e. walk). Other frequently reported symptoms in non HM were neurological and gastrointestinal problems. In children with non HM, the occurring symptoms were much more variable. Mucosal bleeding, hematoma and/or petechiae were recurring problems in children with leukemia requiring platelet transfusions in the home setting, however, not a single child developed massive external hemorrhage. More children with non HM needed morphine-based pain medication (33% vs. 54%). Overall, less drugs for symptom control either regular or on demand medication were needed in children with HM. All patients with HM were continued on palliative chemotherapy. Although anti-infectious prophylaxis was discontinued at the beginning of palliative home care, sepsis did not occur in any child. Four of the HM patients died due to disease-related progressive weakness, one through an acute event (most likely intracranial hemorrhage), and one patient with a T-cell lymphoma and a large mediastinal mass died during palliative sedation. Conclusions: Children with hematologic malignancies who are referred to outpatient palliative care appear to have an equal length of care compared to other cancer patients. A lower number of medications (including morphine-based drugs) is necessary, however transfusion rates are higher. As might have been a fear of both parents and treating physicians, not a single child developed massive external hemorrhage. Better knowledge about the special symptoms and needs of children with hematologic malignancies will enable PPCTs to provide best possible care.

Abstract:
Abstract Neurofibromatosis Type I (NF1) is an autosomal dominant genetic syndrome that is inherited or sporadic. Neuro-Oncology nurses are experienced in the multidisciplinary care of NF1 patients due to an increased incidence of brain tumors and the treatment of plexiform neurofibromas with Mek inhibitors. However, these children are also at higher risk of rare solid tumors, specifically malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST). Most brain tumors in NF1 have a good prognosis. Conversely, MPNST has an extremely poor prognosis. While patients with MPNST are often cared for by solid tumor care teams, the identification and diagnosis of the tumors occur under the care of the neuro-oncology care team. Complex care coordination for patients with NF1 and cancer is required. Specifically, patients with NF1 are more sensitive to chemotherapy, have a higher incidence of radiation-induced secondary tumors, and need monitoring for NF1 related health impacts. Nurses and nurse practitioners with expertise in neuro-oncology, NF1, and solid tumors must collaborate to provide comprehensive care. Teaching tools and clinical strategies have been developed to maintain patients’ continuity with the primary oncology team while gaining the support of subspecialists. The genetic basis, inheritance pattern, and characteristics of Neurofibromatosis Type I will be discussed as well as rare oncologic diagnoses that are more prevalent in children/young adults with NF1. The multidisciplinary approach to the care of the patient with NF1 and a rare cancer diagnoses at a tertiary care center as well as the optimization of care of patients with NF1 and other underlying syndromes and rare cancers will be reviewed. Increased knowledge of NF1 and the associated health impacts and risk of cancers will improve the care of all patients with NF1.

Abstract:
Abstract BACKGROUND: Pineal region tumors are rare intracranial tumors that are more common in children than adults. Surgical management of tumors in this region using a tailored approach is a strategy that enhances extent of resection and neurological outcome. OBJECTIVE: To review our institutional experience with pineal region tumors in children and adults over the past 10 years. METHODS: Our institutional pathology database and patient records were retrospectively reviewed for details regarding clinical and radiological presentation, surgical management, extent of resection, morbidity, and neurological outcome. Statistical analysis was performed to assess for variables related to functional outcomes. RESULTS: Fifty patients were identified as having undergone surgical management of a pineal region tumor with at least 1 year of follow-up. Forty-one percent presented with a Karnofsky Performance Scale (KPS) score of 70 or less, all of whom had concomitant hydrocephalus that required urgent treatment. The following variables were statistically significant to KPS score on admission: age, tumor volume, preoperative hydrocephalus, length of hospitalization (total and intensive care unit), and elevations in serum tumor markers. The median postoperative (2 months) KPS score was 90. The following variables were statistically significant with respect to change in KPS score postoperatively: tumor maximum diameter, KPS score on admission, and intensive care unit length of stay. The specific surgical strategy did not correlate to extent of tumor resection, morbidity, immediate neurological outcome, and progression-free survival. CONCLUSION: Extent of resection, neurological outcome, and progression-free survival in the patients in our series were not related to the specific surgical approach employed and its perioperative complications.

Abstract:
Family-centered care (FCC) is important within the practice of pediatric oncology nurses. Such nurses face challenges and barriers when attempting to provide FCC. The purpose of this study was to understand the experiences of pediatric oncology nurses in relation to FCC; identify how pediatric oncology nurses implemented FCC into their practice; identify what facilitated and enabled pediatric oncology nurses to implement FCC; and discern the barriers and challenges that were present in their setting when implementing FCC. A qualitative approach utilizing person-centered interviewing was used to collect data. Nurses (N=20) from the Alberta Children‟s Hospital were recruited through purposeful convenience sampling and were then interviewed. Five major themes were identified from the data set: ACH support f FCC, How participants defined FCC, Establishing FCC, Enhancing FCC, and Barriers and Challenges to providing FCC. Recommendations for future research and implications for practice and education are offered.

Abstract:
Children who have received radiation therapy for the treatment of brain tumors have been shown to experience neurocognitive deficits which appear to increase over time. The purpose of this study was to examine the memory functioning of 22 children irradiated for brain tumor and 22 healthy children of the same age who had not received irradiation. Subjects were administered a brief form of the WISC-III, to obtain an IQ, and the Wide Range Assessment of Memory and Learning (WRAML), to evaluate visual and verbal memory. Results indicated that, although there were no significant differences between the IQ scores of healthy children and children who had been irradiated, children who have received radiation therapy for brain tumor evidence memory deficits which effect visual and verbal memory abilities. Among the children who had been irradiated, as time since treatment increased, visual memory and overall memory functioning appeared to decline. Findings also suggested that children who received total tumor resection may evidence greater memory deficits than those who received only a partial resection. Visual memory was more closely related to IQ in the children irradiated for brain tumor than in the healthy children. The overall importance of research with this population lies in refining the understanding of memory deficits and strengths in order to formulate more effective remediation compensation, strategies.

Abstract:
Background: Brain tumors are the most common solid neoplasia and the main cause of death from malignancy in children. Germ cell tumors (GCT) of the central nervous system (CNS) are rare. In pediatrics, the main location is close to the pineal gland and germinomas are the most common intracranial GCTs. Objectives and Methods: To describe the case of a patient with a possible germinoma treated exclusively with radiotherapy. The case was studied and came from a referral hospital – João Pesssoa, PB. Results: Reports “impaired failure”, disorientation and headache. Computed tomography: Hydrocephalus and strong tumor suspicion in the pineal region. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and beta-gonadotropin (betaHCG) measurements: Normal. Treatment can be based on radiotherapy or chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy. In this case, radiotherapy was performed at a dosage of 10 Gy, with control, after one month, by means of magnetic resonance imaging that revealed regression of the lesion. The treatment corroborated the hypothesis of a germinoma, which is extremely radiosensitive. However, the regression made it impossible to perform the anatomopathological exam for diagnostic conclusion. Conclusions: It can be seen, then, that primary CNG GCTs are part of a heterogeneous group of extremely rare lesions, with germinoma therapy still controversial. The case shows regression of a possible germinoma only with the use of radiotherapy.

Introduction: This study presents the experience of psychological care to women with breast cancer, attended at the Advanced Breast Diagnosis Center (CORA), Hospital das Clínicas – UFG, under supervision. Objective: The aim of this study is to describe the phases of greatest psychosocial impact in the treatment of patients and family members. Methodology: The service to EAS was started in November 2017 after, 43 years old, divorced, and provider of three minor children, receiving the diagnosis of phylloid tumor, intense anguish, fear of death, emotional lability, conflicts family and socioeconomic status, presenting a distorted perception of identity. She was mastectomized and underwent chemotherapy and a new surgery in 2018, after a recurrence of sarcoma in the sternum bone, at which point she went into palliative care. Psychological, digital, and social-technical resources were used until her death in May 2020. Results: An improvement was observed in the coping strategy, resolution of family conflicts, recovery of affective bonds and their identity, with the distribution of tasks of the children, and improvement of the family dialogue, including the desire to grant the guardianship of the children to her brother. Discussion: It is necessary to have a systemic look at the patient who arrives at the public hospital. Considerations: This experience was enriching due to the relevance of the role of psychology and its interventions with the multidisciplinary team, promoting a significant improvement in the psychological well-being and quality of life of the patient who arrives with real and imagined suffering aggravated by the disease and treatment.
