伴t(10；11)(q22;q23)重排的急性髓系白血病自发完全缓解一例报告并文献复习

OBJECTIVE: To summarize a case of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with severe infection and a rare translocation of t(10;11)(q22;q23) who got spontaneous remission. METHODS: The laboratorial examination results and clinical data in this case were summarized in couple with the light of published literatures. RESULTS: Like most of the spontaneous remission cases, severe infection happened to this case of AML patient, but the different point was that a rare translocation of t(10;11)(q22;q23) was disclosed in this patient. There were only 6 cases of this kind of translocation reported by the literatures up to now. This patient got spontaneous remission after the controlled infection without any chemotherapy. The rare translocation of t(10;11)(q22;q23) disappeared after he got remission. CONCLUSION: Spontaneous remission of acute leukemia was a rare phenomenon, the underlying mechanism was unclear, maybe due to the inflammatory factors triggered by infection, or the activated immune system by the infection, or even the role of gene mutation factors. Accumulating data might shed insight into this rare kind of disease.
