A female with chronic myeloid leukemia (XX Ph 1 +) in blast crisis (localized to pleura and lymph nodes) was treated by polychemotherapy. After reversion to the chronic phase, an allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) was performed. Sixteen months after BMT, no sign of the disease was present (XY Ph 1 ‐).
