    Abstract Survival of childhood cancer is increasing, resulting in a growing population of childhood cancer survivors who enter the health care system. There is widespread agreement on the need for effective transition programs for age-appropriate care for these individuals. However, the transition from pediatric to adult care can be a particularly confusing and overwhelming experience for the survivors of childhood cancer or children requiring long term treatment. The concept of transition implies more than just transfer of a cancer patient /more often a survivor to adult care; the preparation of which must begin well before the event of transfer. The transfer of a pediatric case to adult team could have many implications like a feeling of insecurity culminating in psychosocial issues. There is another concept in management of cancers: 'Shared care' which is essentially integration and coordination of care to develop an effective and collaborative relationship between primary and cancer care physicians. The care of patients from diagnosis to treatment is complex and requires the expertise of a wide range of care providers who are new to patients/survivors. This review article elaborates on both transition of care and shared care as applicable to India.

    Abstract Proptosis is a frequent presenting symptom/sign of many paediatric malignancies. Acute-onset proptosis is an ophthalmic emergency that can endanger vision if not treated promptly. Appropriate treatment must be instituted only after investigating for the underlying aetiology. Here, we report a developmentally delayed boy in middle childhood who presented with recent onset bilateral proptosis. Clinical examination followed by radiological evaluation suggested scurvy to be the underlying cause and vitamin C supplementation led to prompt reversal of proptosis. The relevant literature has been reviewed and presented here to apprise the paediatric oncologists about this rare but easily treatable cause of proptosis.

    Abstract Three-year-old boy who presented with colicky abdominal pain, diarrhoea and vomiting was investigated with computed tomography which revealed a mass in the peripancreatic region. An imaging possibility of duodenal intramural hematoma was considered after reassessment with ultrasound which was subsequently confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging. The development of a spontaneous duodenal hematoma lead to further evaluation of the patient and revealed X linked hyper IgM syndrome.

    Abstract A 12-year-old boy presented with abdominal distention for 1 year. On examination, he had massive hepatomegaly. Facial swelling in the maxillary region, palpable left cervical lymph nodes, and a nasal twang to his voice were detected. Imaging showed multiple hypodense liver lesions, necrotic mediastinal and hilar lymph nodes, multiple lytic-sclerotic skeletal lesions, and lesions in the nasopharynx and maxilla. Fine needle aspirate (FNA) from the cervical lymph node yielded blood. FNA from the liver showed singly dispersed and cohesive clusters of tumor cells, with interspersed neutrophils and tingible body macrophages. Cells had scant to moderate fragile cytoplasm, enlarged vesicular nuclei, and prominent nucleoli. Immunohistochemistry on cell block revealed positivity for cytokeratin and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-Latent Membrane Protein-1 (LMP1). A diagnosis of metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma was made, and was confirmed on a subsequent biopsy from the femur.

    Abstract Storage disorders are a group of inborn errors of metabolism caused by the defective activity of lysosomal enzymes or transporters. All of these disorders have multisystem involvement with variable degrees of neurological features. Neurological manifestations are one of the most difficult aspects of treatment concerning these diseases. The available treatment modalities for some of these disorders include enzyme replacement therapy, substrate reduction therapy, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and the upcoming gene therapies. As a one-time intervention, the economic feasibility of HSCT makes it an attractive option for treating these disorders, especially in lower and middle-income countries. Further, improvements in peri-transplantation medical care, better conditioning regimens and better supportive care have improved the outcomes of patients undergoing HSCT. In this review, we discuss the current evidence for HSCT in various storage disorders and its suitability as a mode of therapy for the developing world.
