Abstract
Kanserli nötropenik hastalarda infeksiyonlar önemli morbidite ve mortalite nedenidir. Nötropeninin süresi ve mutlak nötrofil sayısı infeksiyon riskini etkileyen önemli faktörlerdir. Febril nötropenili çocuklarda görülen enfeksiyonların etkenleri çoğu kez bakteriler olmakla birlikte viruslar, mantar ve parazitler de etken olarak izole edilmektedir. Bu yazıda çocuklarda febril nötropenide etiyoloji, tanı ve tedavi tartışılmıştır.
Infections are important causes of morbidity and mortality in neutropenic patients with cancer. Duration of neutropenia and absolute neutrophil count are important factors affecting infection risk. In febril neutropenic children, mostly seen infectious agents are bacteria. However, virus, fungus and parasites are also isolated from febril neutropenic patients in less frequency. In this review, etiologic agents, diagnosis and treatment of febril neutropenia in children are discussed.
