MULTIPLE PRIMARY TUMORS IN CHRONIC LEUKEMIA AND GENERALIZED LYMPHOMAS

Abstract

There are presented results of the analysis of case histories of 418 patients with generalized lymphomas and chronic leukemia, among whom 49 patients had information about multiple primary cancers. Among these patients, 37 were diagnosed as generalized lymphoma, 8 - multiple myeloma and 4 - chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. Most often hemoblastosis combined with skin cancer (17 patients), bowel cancer (11 patients) and lung cancer (9 patients). 3 patients had hemoblastosis combination with prostate, as well as kidney, stomach, and thyroid malignant diseases. Among all cases, 44 patients had two multiple primary tumors, 4 patients had three tumors. In this work, the analysis of patients is given according to the age-gender structure, time of the onset of the development of tumors. As an example, the short information about 4 patients with hematological malignancies in combination with other tumors is given.
