%X Aim: The aim of this study is to analyze and present the status about muscle strength, gross motor function, functional mobility, sleep and quality of life of children with Acute Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (ALL) during hospitalization. Methods: Children diagnosed as ALL, between 4-18 ages, having medical treatment at hospital were included in this study. Children with any other neurologic or metabolic diseases and children whose cancer reoccurred didn¡¯t include. For all of the children information recorded about age (year), height (cm), body mass (kg), gender, exercise background, recurrent of the cancer and medical treatment. Assessment scales that are used in this study were; Gross Motor Functions Measurement (GMFM), Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, sit-to-stand test, 1 minute walk test (1 MWT), Functional Independence Measure for Children (WeFIM), Impact on Family Scale (IPFAM), Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) (Cancer Module) Parent Proxy Report and Children¡¯s Sleep Habits Questionnaire Short Form (CSHQ). We presented descriptive analyses as minimums, maximums, means and standard deviations for continuous variables and minimums, maximums, medians and standard errors for categorical variables. We set the level of signi£¿cance at p<0.05. Results: We included 7 children (5 girls and two boys) and parents in this study. Mean age of the children was 6.86 ¡À4.48. In our sample mean value of GMFM-66 was 67.65¡À15.57, TUG was 11.69¡À5.10, 1 MWT was 55.81¡À23.81, sit-to-stand test was 23.69¡À6.81, IPFAM total score was 72.71¡À4.34, CSHQ total score was 48.71¡À2.87, WeeFIM total score was 100.57¡À7.27 and PedsQL total score was 64.29¡À19.17 Conclusion: According to the study ALL affects musculoskeletal status, quality of life, family impairment and sleep habits of the children. We think muscle strengthening exercises and activity focused interventions could be effective and should be studied in new research in the rehabilitation of ALL
