Overview

Development of tumor lysis syndrome is the result of initiation of chemotherapy or radiotherapy in cancer patients. The most common causes of tumor lysis syndrome are Burkitt's lymphoma, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia and chemotherapy including methotrexate. Sometimes it can occur spontaneously without administration of treatment primarily in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) or acute leukemia.
