Visceral leishmaniasis masquerading as myelodysplasia.

Abstract:

:We report a case of a 61-year-old man with head and neck cancer who presented with pancytopenia two months after the completion of his chemotherapy and was diagnosed with myelodysplasia on the basis of two bone marrow examinations, before the correct diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis was established with splenectomy.

  • Anthracycline-based therapy of de novo acute myeloid leukemia in adults: failure of first-cycle cytoreduction to predict second-cycle outcome.

    abstract::During 1971-1988, 194 adults with de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) received initial therapy at the University of Minnesota with an anthracycline-based regimen. Seventy-two of the 194 required further chemotherapy and received a second cycle of the same or similar therapy; 63 of these 72 were evaluable. For each ma...
