A

3yo

35
Q

A

(-) AFP, (+) BHcg

36
Q

A

(-) AFP, (-) BHcg

37

40
Q

A

estrogens

41
Q

A child under the age of 6 months with multiple liver lesions and a normal AFP most likely has

A

hemangioendothelioma

42
Q

what age is hepatoblastoma most likely in

A

<3

43
Q

Can hepatocellular carcinoma cause increased AFP

A

yes. 50% do

44
Q

hemangioendothelioma

A

most common benign liver lesion of childhood. no biopsy necessary. solid lesions can be resected if necessary. If unresectable or consumption coagulopathy is present, treat with steroids

45
Q

In which conditions are astrocytomas associated?

A

neurofibromatosis type 1 or tuberous sclerosis

46
Q

In which conditions is leukemia associated

A

Fanconi anemia, ataxia-telangiectasia, Bloom syndrome, and trisomy 21.

47
Q

In which conditions is neuroblastoma associated?

A

Neuroblastoma can be seen in hereditary neuroblastoma because of ALK gene mutations, neurofibromatosis type 1, central congenital hypoventilation syndrome due to PHOX2b gene mutations, and Hirschsprung disease

48
Q

What does leukoreduction of blood do?

A

reduced the PMNs in blood (not lymphocytes). These usualyl cause cytokine release and decrease risk of febrile reaction

49
Q

What does irradiation do?

A

decreased lymphocytes that can cause GVHD in immunocompromised patients.
