Abstract
The case of de novo acute promyelocyte leukemia in a 22 year old pregnant woman (gestation age 24–25 weeks) is described. Two courses of “7 + 3 + ATRA” chemotherapy were performed. Molecular remission was achieved after the first induction chemotherapy. A month after the second consolidation chemotherapy at gestation age 36 weeks a living premature fetus was delivered by means of Cesarean delivery. After the delivery two more consolidation courses and supportive chemotherapy were performed. The chemotherapy was finished, the woman for 4 years has been on remission.
