Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has been rarely reported after transplantation, namely seven cases described so far. The putative mechanism of action is long-standing immunosuppression, even though no clear correlation with the type of drug has ever been demonstrated. We report the case of a 28-year-old male patient who presented with a early onset of AML after liver transplantation for hepatitis B virus-related acute liver failure. The AML was characterized by aggressive clinical features with extrahematologic sites of involvement and an atypical immunophenotype; the laboratory findings were consistent with the diagnosis of monocytic acute leukemia.
移植后发生急性髓系白血病(AML)的情况鲜有报道,迄今为止仅描述了7例。其假定的作用机制是长期免疫抑制,尽管尚未证实与药物类型有明确关联。我们报告了一例28岁男性患者,该患者因乙型肝炎病毒相关急性肝衰竭接受肝移植后早期发生AML。该AML具有侵袭性临床特征,伴有血液外受累部位和非典型免疫表型;实验室检查结果符合单核细胞急性白血病的诊断。
