Neutropenic enteropathy: a 10-year review.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:With the advent of more aggressive chemotherapy, the incidence of neutropenic enteropathy is increasing. This review was performed to (1) determine which children are affected, (2) identify predisposing factors, and (3) assess efficacy of treatment. METHODS:A 10-year (1988 to 1997) review identified 33 children who had 38 episodes of neutropenic enteropathy. Each presented with fever, abdominal pain, and chemotherapy-induced neutropenia. All were treated with fluid resuscitation, bowel rest, and broad-spectrum antibiotics. Surgical intervention was reserved for children with bowel perforation. RESULTS:Neutropenic enteropathy occurred in 24 children with hematologic malignancies and nine with solid tumors. This disease developed in three children after bone marrow transplantation for leukemia. All five patients in whom recurrent episodes developed were receiving chemotherapy for Burkitt's lymphoma. Cytosine arabinoside and VP16 were the most commonly implicated chemotherapeutic agents. Four children required laparotomy and right hemicolectomy, and all survived. Overall survival was 94%. CONCLUSIONS:Although previously described in children receiving chemotherapy for hematologic malignancies, neutropenic enteropathy also occurs in children who have solid tumors and after bone marrow transplantation. The use of cytosine arabinoside and VP16 may predispose patients to this disease. Children receiving chemotherapy for Burkitt's lymphoma are at increased risk for recurrent episodes. Excellent survival rate was attained with supportive care being used as the primary treatment modality.
