Cervical Edema Extending to the Larynx as Local Cytokine Release Syndrome Following Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy in a Boy with Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Cervical Edema Extending to the Larynx as Local Cytokine Release Syndrome Following Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy in a Boy with Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) is one of the major acute complications caused by massive cytokine release after chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy. Patients with tumor masses were considered at high risk of local CRS induced by the expansion of CAR T cells in the tumor masses. However,...
