More than 90% of cases have laboratory manifestations, and only about 10% have clinical manifestations. The main complications are acute renal failure, cardiac arrhythmia and metabolic acidosis. The management of TLS consists of preventive measures in high-risk patients prior to cancer treatment as well as prompt initiation of supportive care for patients who develop acute tumor lysis syndrome during treatment. The traditional management consists of intravenous hydratation, urinary alkalinization, diuretics and control of hyperuricemia, electrolyte disturbances and dialysis if needed. The use of a new hypouricemic agent (rasburicase) in patients with TLS minimized the need for renal dialysis as well as reduced the incidence of complication...

Here we present three cases of systemic malignancy in which bone lesions were the first manifested signs of the disease. All three cases were thought to be orthopedic cases and had been treated as so without genuing improvement. We would like to draw an attention to children who present with multifocal musculoskeletal pain and the importance of whole-body scaning. We describe interesting cases of diffuse large cell lymphoma and leukemia that initially presented as primary osteolytic bone lesion and discuss the differential diagnosis, literature review of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma arising in bone as the primary site (Tab. 1, Fig. 3, Ref. 18).
