Abstract
A 33-year-old man was treated with intensive chemotherapy for myeloid blastic crisis of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), which developed after radiotherapy and chemotherapy for Hodgkin's disease. After achieving a second chronic phase, he underwent allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Despite many complications, 1 year after BMT the disease was in complete remission and the patient was in excellent condition. The incidence of CML following treatment for Hodgkin's disease is briefly discussed. This is the first report of prolonged complete remission for blastic crisis of CML, which developed after combined treatment for advanced Hodgkin's disease.
