摘要
We report a patient with an initial relapse of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) who achieved a second complete remission (CR) after treatment with arsenic trioxide. The patient, a 66-year-old woman diagnosed as having relapsed APL, received arsenic trioxide intravenously at a dose of 10 mg/day. At day 36, the patient achieved a second CR. The side effects were slight neuralgia and mild skin erythematous changes, which improved following cessation of the drug. Although arsenic trioxide may be effective for relapsed APL, it should be used with caution because of various complications.
