Article Synopsis
- Tumour lysis syndrome (TLS) is a rare but serious complication that can occur after chemotherapy for solid tumours, due to rapid tumour cell death.
- Symptoms of TLS include metabolic imbalances and signs of kidney failure, which require prompt treatment through rehydration and fixing the metabolic issues.
- This case study highlights the first recorded instance of TLS in a patient with metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumour treated with imatinib mesylate.
