A Case of Acute Myeloid Leukemia after Adalimumab Treatment in Psoriatic Arthritis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hematologic malignancies and lymphoproliferative disorders have been reported after using tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitor in patients suffering from spondyloarthropathy. Previously reported cases were treated by using infliximab and etanercept. Usually, it takes approximately several months for leukemia or lymphoproliferative disorders to occur after the application of those agents. However, we report a case of acute myeloid leukemia that developed after short term usage of adalimumab in a patient suffering from psoriatic arthritis.
