    Pulmonary embolism in pediatrics: A 10-year experience from a tertiary center in Brazil
    (2023) LIRA, Liana Ariel de Siqueira; CELESTE, Daniele Martins; GARANITO, Marlene Pereira; CARNEIRO, Jorge David Aivazoglou
    Introduction: Although still rare, pulmonary embolism (PE) in children has been increasing over the years. Data regarding this group of patients are still sparse, which contributes to the lack of standardized prophylaxis protocols and the misdiagnosis. This study aimed to determine the incidence of pediatric PE at a Brazilian tertiary hospital, describe clinical characteristics and identify possible risk factors. We also analyzed the diagnosis and management of PE. Methods: This was a retrospective review of tertiary Brazilian single-center data of all pediatric patients (0 - 18 years) with acute PE, diagnosed radiologically, from September 2009 to May 2019. Results: The incidence of PE was 3.3 cases per 10,000 hospitalized children. All the twenty-three cases had some risk factor identified and sixteen of them (69.5%) had more than one risk factor. The most important were central venous catheter (39.1%), malignancy (34.8%) and recent surgery (34.8%). Among the children with identifiable symptoms (69.5%), the most common was dyspnea (56.2%). Only one patient did not receive antithrombotic therapy because of the high bleeding risk and most patients (70.6%) were treated for 3 to 6 months. Among the nineteen patients alive at the end of the six-month follow-up, ten (52.6%) repeated the PE image control. Seven of them (70.0%) had complete or partial resolution of the thrombosis and none had worsening images. Conclusion: Our lower incidence than that of the current literature may reflect under-diagnosis due to low suspicion of PE. At least one risk factor was identified in all patients, which emphasizes the importance of increasing awareness of high-risk children.

    Thombolytic therapy in preterm infants: Fifteen-year experience
    (2020) GRIZANTE-LOPES, Priscila; GARANITO, Marlene Pereira; CELESTE, Daniele Martins; KREBS, Vera Lucia Jornada; CARNEIRO, Jorge David Aivazoglou
    Objective To report a single-center experience with thrombolytic therapy using recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) in preterm neonates with severe thrombotic events, in terms of thrombus resolution and bleeding complications. Study design This retrospective study included 21 preterm neonates with severe venous thrombotic events admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit, identified in our pharmacy database from January 2001 to December 2016, and treated with rt-PA until complete or partial clot lysis, no-response or bleeding complications. Our primary outcome was thrombus resolution. Results Twenty-one preterm neonates were treated with rt-PA for an average of 2.9 cycles. Seventeen patients (80.9%) had superior vena cava thrombosis and superior vena cava syndrome. All patients had a central venous catheter, parenteral nutrition, mechanical ventilation, and sepsis. Fifteen patients (71.4%) were extremely preterm, 11 (52.4%) were extremely low birth weight, and seven (33.3%) were very low birth weight. The patency rate was 85.7%, complete lysis occurred in 11 (52.4%) patients, and partial lysis in seven (33.3%). Minor bleeding occurred in five (23.8%) patients, three patients (14.2%) had clinically relevant nonmajor bleeding events, and major bleeding occurred in six (28%) patients. Conclusion In this study, the rate of thrombus resolution in preterm neonates treated with rt-PA were similar to the percentages reported in children and adolescents, with a high rate of bleeding. Therefore, rt-PA thrombolytic therapy should only be considered as a treatment option for severe life-threatening thrombosis in premature neonates for whom the benefits of the thrombolytic treatment outweigh the risks of bleeding.

    Pediatric Evans Syndrome: A 20-year experience from a tertiary center in Brazil
    (2023) BLANCO, Bruna Paccola; GARANITO, Marlene Pereira
    Introduction: The Evans syndrome (ES) is a rare, often chronic, relapsing and treatment -refractory hematological disorder. We described the clinical features, diagnostic workup, treatment and outcome in patients with ES.Method: We performed a retrospective chart review of patients aged < 18 years with ES admitted to a tertiary center in Brazil from 2001 to 2021. The analysis of the data was pri-marily descriptive, using median, interquartile range and categorical variables presented in absolute frequencies.Main results: Twenty patients (12 female, 8 male) were evaluated in this study. The median age at the initial cytopenia was 4.98 years (1.30-12.57). The ES was secondary in nine cases (45%), of which six patients (30%) showed autoimmune disease (AID) or primary immuno-deficiencies (PID) and one presented a spontaneous recovery. Steroids and intravenous immunoglobulin were first-line therapy in 19 cases. Twelve patients (63%) required sec-ond-line treatments (rituximab, cyclosporine, splenectomy, sirolimus, cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mofetil, azathioprine and eltrombopag). The median follow-up period was 2.41 years (1.4 -7.52). One patient (5%) died of underlying neuroblastoma, one case (5%) was lost to follow-up and four patients (20%) received a medical discharge. The median age for the 14 remaining cases was 12.6 years. Twelve patients (85.7%) were in complete response (CR) with no therapies. Two patients (14.3%) were in CR with chronic therapy.Conclusion: As ES may be a symptom of AID and PID, a thorough rheumatological, immuno-logic and genetic workup and a careful follow-up are essential. The second-line treatment remains a dilemma. Further prospective studies are needed to address the optimal thera-peutic combinations, morbidity and mortality in this disorder.& COPY; 2022 Associacao Brasileira de Hematologia, Hemoterapia e Terapia Celular.

    Essential thrombocythemia: a rare disease in childhood
    (2013) BEATRICE, Julia Maimone; GARANITO, Marlene Pereira
    Essential thrombocythemia is an acquired myeloproliferative disorder characterized by the proliferation of megakaryocytes in bone marrow, leading to a persistent increase in the number of circulating platelets and thus increasing the risk for thrombotic and hemorrhagic events. The disease features leukocytosis, splenomegaly, vascular occlusive events, hemorrhages and vasomotor disorders. The intricate mechanisms underlying the molecular pathogenesis of this disorder are not completely understood and are still a matter of discussion. Essential thrombocythemia is an extremely rare disorder during childhood. We report on a case of essential thrombocythemia in a child and discuss the diagnostic approach and treatment strategy.
