Rare Manifestation

<p>Priapism is rarely seen in leukemia. We report a 30-year-old man presented with persistent painful erection of penis for 30 hours. Treatment of the priapism was initially performed by cavernosa aspiration and epinephrine irrigation at emergency department under the impression of low flow-type priapism by urologist. This approach resulted in a flaccid penis later. The patient was diagnosed as a case of Chronic myeloid Leukemia (CML) on the basis of peripheral blood smear and bone marrow aspiration. Neither impotency nor other sequelae was noted after his discharge from the hospital. This case highlights regarding the awareness of all physicians in the diagnosis and management of patients with priapism occurring as a rare manifestation of chronic myeloid leukemia. To the best of our knowledge, probably this is the first case report from this part of the country, hence the case report.</p><p id="tinymce" class="mceContentBody " dir="ltr">Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.15(1) 2016 p.142-144</p>

Cytostatic Agent

Hydroxyurea (HU) is a cytostatic agent used to treat myeloproliferative disorders including chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), the long term use of which has been seen to be associated with multiple skin disorders. The purpose of this study was to report concomitant occurrence of multiple skin carcinomas in patients on HU & consider an alternative chemotherapeutic agent for myeloproliferative disorders.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.16(3) 2017 p.464-466

Author Report

Priapism is a rare presenting feature of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML). It is an urological emergency which requires urgent treatment to prevent long term complications, in particular erectile dysfunction. Author report a case of 18 year old male presenting with persistent painful erection of penis for around 14 hours. The patient underwent immediate irrigation and decompression of priapism in emergency and was started on cytoreductive therapy. During hospitalization, peripheral blood smear and bone marrow aspiration confirmed the diagnosis of CML.

Herein, the first case of childhood erythrophagocytosis following chemotherapy for erythroleukemia in a child with monosomy 7 is reported. A 5-year-old boy presented with anemia, thrombocytopenia, and hepatosplenomegaly in whom erythroleukemia was diagnosed. Prolonged pancytopenia accompanied by persistent fever and huge splenomegaly and hepatomegaly became evident after 2 courses of chemotherapy. On bone marrow aspiration, macrophages phagocytosing erythroid precursors were observed and the diagnosis of HLH was established; additionally, monosomy 7 was detected on bone marrow cytogenetic examination. In conclusion, monosomy 7 can lead to erythrophagocytosis associated with erythroid leukemia and should be considered among the chromosomal abnormalities contributing to the association.
