Abstract
Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) is a clinical syndrome characterized by bilateral pulmonary edema in association with transfusions. We encountered a 23-year-old woman with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, in whom TRALI without anti-human leukocyte antigen class I and anti-granulocyte antibodies developed following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. TRALI improved mainly in association with treatment of saline and ventilation support after several days, but graft-versus-host disease and thrombotic microangiopathy developed, resulting in death due to multiple organ failure. This case indicates that TRALI can also occur following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.
