Abstract
Cytosine arabinoside in low dose is sometimes employed for treating acute myeloid leukaemia. We report here a case of acute myeloid leukemia, treated with low-dose cytosine arabinoside, who developed acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis and Pneumocytsis cariniipneumonia after attainment of remission. A direct effect of cytosine arabinoside on neurophil function and an immunosuppressive potential in lower doses could be speculated.
