title: [Early establishment of bone marrow hypoplasia by antileukemic chemotherapy with concurrent rhG-CSF in a case of acute myelogenous leukemia complicated with intestinal perforation].
abstract: We report a case of 53-year-old man with acute myelogenous leukemia (M2) showing a karyotype of t(7;11) (p15;p15), del(10) (q11;q12), who was complicated with perforation of a duodenal ulcer during the antileukemic chemotherapy using behenoyl ara-C, daunorubicin, 6-mercaptopurine and prednisolone. As his bone marrow still showed high cell density and leukemic proliferation at the time of intestinal perforation, the therapeutic regimen was changed to a combination of behenoyl are-C and mitoxantrone, and daily rhG-CSF was concurrently administered for the purpose of early establishment of bone marrow hypoplasia. On the 8th day after the therapeutic regimen had been changed, his bone marrow became nearly aplastic, and complete remission was obtained on the 24th day. This case may indicate that the concurrent administration of cell-cycle specific antileukemic drugs and rhG-CSF is available for AML patients with emergent need of leukemic cell reduction.
