摘要
Thrombosis of the cerebral veins or sinuses is a rare cerebrovascular disorder, which seldom represents a complication of acute promyelocytic leukemia. To the best of our knowledge, it never occurred during treatment with all-trans retinoic acid. We report a case of a 35-year-old woman affected by acute promyelocytic leukemia, who developed massive thrombosis of the cerebral sinuses and veins when she was in complete morphological and molecular remission after all-trans retinoic acid and idarubicin treatment Anticoagulant therapy contributed to progressive dissolution of the thrombosis as documented by magnetic resonance imaging with complete disappearance of neurological signs without sequelae.
