Oncology Diagnoses and Emergencies: Who Am I?Versión en línea
Guess the oncological diagnoses or emergencies using the given riddles!
1
I follow success but bring distress,
When cells break down in great excess.
Their hidden stores flood out too fast,
Overwhelming blood that once held fast.
The kidneys clog, the rhythm may fail—
What am I, the condition that tells this tale?
Hints
Prevention and treatment focus on hydration and 'uric acid-lowering' strategies to protect the kidneys.
It involves unusual levels of potassium, phosphate, uric acid, and calcium and can affect the kidneys.
Think about a complication that happens after starting cancer therapy due to big cell death.
2
I line the path where words begin,
Soft and smooth when all is well within.
But when I’m harmed, I become sore,
With ulcers, pain, and so much more.
Eating, talking—both feel tough—
Who am I, when things get rough?
3
I am a childhood mass inside,
Where urine forms and toxins hide.
A silent lump you may not feel,
Until a scan reveals I’m real.
I come from kidney cells gone wrong—
Who am I, this tumor that grows too strong?
4
I make clots where they shouldn’t be,
Then cause bleeding you can see.
I use up platelets and factors too,
So your body doesn’t know what to do.
I can start from infection or injury severe,
And quickly become something to fear.
I’m not the main problem, but a dangerous clue—
A complication that can harm you.
Who am I?
5
I hide in the gut, most often the right side,
When your defenses are low, I sneak inside.
Fever and belly pain are my clue,
Especially in patients with low white cells too.
I can be dangerous if not caught in time,
Turning a simple ache into something more dire.
Who am I?
6
I bring a fever that shouldn’t wait,
Because your defenses are in a low state.
Your white cells drop, especially one kind,
Leaving your body less able to fight what it might find.
Infection may hide without many clues,
But I’m an emergency you must not confuse.
I often follow treatments strong and tough,
Where fighting disease can be more than enough.
Who am I?
7
I start in the marrow where blood is made,
With immature cells that won’t properly grade.
I crowd out the good, healthy ones,
Leading to problems as my number runs.
Bruising, fatigue, and fevers may show,
Because normal cells are running low.
I’m common in kids but adults too,
And with treatment, many make it through.
Who am I?
8
I am small but play a vital role,
Helping stop bleeding is my goal.
When I am scarce, bruises appear,
Nosebleeds and spots you start to fear.
Cuts take longer to clot and stay—
Who am I, when I fade away?
9
I affect the cells that help you live,
The ones that carry, fight, and give.
Reds bring oxygen, whites defend,
Platelets help your bleeding end.
But when all three of us run low,
Weakness, infection, and bruising show—
Who am I, when all decline?
Hints
The term literally means 'deficiency of all blood cells.'
Often linked to bone marrow problems like aplastic anemia or marrow failure.
A drop in all major blood cell types.
10
I grow in bones, both strong and tall,
often near joints, I trouble them all.
Pain and swelling may be my sign,
sometimes mistaken as a sports injury at first in time.
I'm most common in the young and fast-growing years,
a serious diagnosis that brings many fears.
I can spread if not caught in time,
so early treatment is key in this fight of mine.
Who am I?
