Five children with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) are described in whom typhlitis developed early in the course of the disease. The plain and barium-enema radiographic findings of mass effect and bowel edema ("thumbprinting") were similar among the cases, although nonspecific. The increasing association of typhlitis with AML and its earlier appearance in the course of the disease should be recognized.
本文描述了5例急性髓性白血病(AML)患儿,他们在疾病过程早期发生了盲肠炎。尽管这些病例的X线平片和钡灌肠造影表现为占位效应和肠壁水肿(“拇指印征”),具有非特异性,但表现相似。应认识到盲肠炎与AML的相关性增加及其在疾病过程中更早出现的情况。
