[Malignant neoplasms in leukemias].

The paper presents an evaluation of 1.236 cases of different forms of leukemia. Malignant tumors of different localizations were identified in 21 cases (1.7%). Neoplasms were most frequently associated with chronic lymphoid leukemia (4%), followed by osteomyelosclerosis (1.3%), chronic myeloleukemia (1%), polycythemia (0.9%) and acute leukemia (0.44%). A case of chronic myeloleukemia with concomitant myelosarcoma, thyroid cancer, malignant tumor of kidney and cortical adenoma is presented. The role of immunological disorders and cytostatic therapy in the genesis of "secondary" tumor are discussed.
