RESUMEN

A case of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) after successful therapy for Hodgkin's disease (HD) is reported. The patient was diagnosed with stage IIB HD at the age of 25. She was treated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy (RT), and complete remission (CR) was achieved. Seven months after the CR was obtained the patient developed AML. Knowing that the prognosis of patients with secondary AML (sAML) after primary HD is poor we decided to perform autologous peripheral stem cells' transplantation.
