Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) is an oncological emergency that most frequently occurs in hematological and high-turnover solid neoplasia. Its incidence in solid, slowly proliferating neoplasia is unclear, primarily because of few published case reports. TLS may be triggered by chemotherapy or infection, or may spontaneously arise. Here, we present a review of the literature and a case of a 58-year-old male patient with prostate cancer who developed spontaneous TLS.
肿瘤溶解综合征(TLS)是一种肿瘤急症,最常发生于血液系统肿瘤和高周转率实体瘤。其在实体性、缓慢增殖性肿瘤中的发病率尚不清楚,主要原因是公开的病例报告较少。TLS可能由化疗或感染引发,也可能自发出现。在此,我们对文献进行综述,并报告一例58岁前列腺癌男性患者发生自发性TLS的病例。
