Abstract:
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to describe imaging findings of common and uncommon musculoskeletal manifestations, posttreatment changes, and complications of pediatric hematologic malignancies. CONCLUSION. Many pediatric patients with leukemia and lymphoma present with or experience musculoskeletal symptoms over the course of the disease. Imaging can depict bone and soft-tissue signs of pediatric hematologic malignancies and plays an important role in the diagnosis of complications and treatment-related changes.
