RESUMEN
La leucemia linfoide aguda (LLA) es el cáncer más frecuente en niños. A nivel mundial se estima que cerca del 30% corresponde a la totalidad de las neoplasias malignas que se presentan en niños y, de estas, más del 75% son LLA. En Colombia no existe aún un registro nacional de cáncer que nos permita evaluar exactamente la carga de la enfermedad por esta patología; sin embargo, se estima que se presentan aproximadamente 2.080 casos nuevos por año de cáncer en pacientes pediátricos y de estos 500 corresponden a LLA. Con el objetivo de disminuir la mortalidad y mejorar la oportunidad en el diagnóstico y en el tratamiento de los niños afectados por esta patología, se desarrolló esta Guía de práctica clínica (GPC) como producto del trabajo durante meses de un grupo organizado y motivado de médicos especialistas en el área (epidemiólogos, economistas, entre otros), quienes elaboraron recomendaciones para las diferentes etapas tanto para la prevención, sospecha, diagnóstico, tratamiento, seguimiento de los niños y adolescentes con diagnóstico de LLA.
RESUMO
Acute lymphocytic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common cancer in children. Globally, it is estimated that nearly 30% correspond to the total of malignant tumours in children, and 75% of them are ALL. There is no national cancer registry in Colombia that would allow us to precisely assess the burden of the disease for this condition; however, calculations have shown that there are 2,080 new paediatric cancer cases every year, and of those 500 correspond to ALL. With the goal of reducing mortality and improving the chances for a diagnosis and treatment of children affected by this condition, the present clinical practice guide (CPG) was developed after a work of months carried out by an organised and motivated group of physicians specialised in the field (epidemiologists and economists, among others), who formulated recommendations for the different stages prevention, suspicion, diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of children and teens diagnosed with ALL.
