Abstract
This clinical case describes the manifestation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) against the backdrop of severe COVID-19 infection in a teenage patient. The patient’s examination data, medical history, and available scientific literature on the relationship between COVID-19 and leukemia manifestation were studied and analyzed. COVID-19 infection in the context of AML was severe, with respiratory failure and involvement of more than 90% of the lungs according to computed tomography data. Changes observed in peripheral blood did not have specific alterations and only indirectly indicated an unfavorable premorbid background. This clinical case reflects the likelihood of the simultaneous presence of COVID-19 and other acute severe illnesses.
