Abstract
|
|
|
|
There have been several reported cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia with severe lactic acidosis in adults. In these cases, kidney and liver enlargement that was caused by leukemic infiltration frequently accompanied the acute lymphoblastic leukemia and severe lactic acidosis. Chemotherapy is the only treatment that can rapidly correct the lactic acidosis and normalize the liver and kidney enlargement. We report here on a case of acute lymphoblastic leukemia that was accompanied with severe lactic acidosis and kidney enlargement.
