ABSTRACT

Background: Acute leukemia groups diverse diseases that have in common the neoplasm transformation of the of hematopoyetic cells. Due to his relative frequency it represents 35 % of the neoplasm in patients with age lower than 15 years. In the last years there has been an increasing interest in the study of the nutritious condition of these patients.
Objective: Determine the nutritional condition of children and teenagers with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in oncological treatment that are present at the Oncopediatric Unit at the General Hospital of Celaya.
Methods and Patients: A descriptive, transverse and longitudinal study was realized, 41 patients were included from two to 18 years of age, both sexes, with diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in oncological treatment.
Results: The results allow to know that the nutritional condition of the patients, it was normal in 17 (42%) of the children and teenagers, followed by 12 overweight (29%) and 6 obesity (15%) cases, and that malnutrition does not appear frequently, slight malnutrition was observed in 5 (12%) and seriously in 1 case (2%).
Discussion: The biochemical parameters change due to the disease and oncological treatment, so they are not reliable parameters to determine the nutritious condition in pediatric patients with ALL.
With this study is possible to be clear that the acute lymphoblastic leukemia is a disease of low nutritional risk.
