[Chronic eosinophilic leukemia].
In this research one case of chronic myelogenous eosinophilic leukemia (pbe) transformed into myeloblastic crisis in male patient aged 24, efficiently treated chemotherapy with following performing allogenic bone marrow transplantation was represented. The patients was admitted to the Department of Hematology with the cause of increased leucocytosis (up to 19.9 x 10(9)/l), eosinophilia (up to 15.3 x 10(9)/l), enlarged percentage of eosinophillic granulocytes in bone marrow, splenomegaly, anaemia and thrombocytopenia. Cytogenetic tests did not reveal any chromosomal disturbances, and PCR test did not detect bcr/abl rearanzation. After 7 monthly period of chronic phase of disease there was appeared symptoms of blastic acceleration myelogenous disease i.e. enlargement of splenomegaly, intensification of anaemia and thrombocytopenia, very fast increasing leucocytosis in short time together with presence of myeloblasts in blood and bone marrow smear tests. Blastic acceleration pbe with eosinophils dominant in bone marrow was confirmed by flow cytometry. Induction chemotherapy according to schedule HAR (Hydroxyurea--H, Arabinoside Cytosine--A, Doxorubicin--R), consolidation and irradiation of spleen allowed to receive complete remission. The patients was undergone allogenic bone marrow transplantation (allo-BMT) from related donor (younger brother). The follow-up with the period 18 months after allo-BMT has not revealed the relapse of disease.
