The article presents a case of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) in a patient aged 54 years, against which acute myeloid leukemia developed. The main methods of laboratory examination are given. Intensive polychemo-therapy of T-ALL in 50% of cases causes long-term remission in adults. Treatment of acute T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia consists in long-term intensive systemic chemotherapy and intrathecal administration of chemopreparations. However, despite significant achievements in treatment of patients with this pathology, relapse of the disease occurs in 40% of patients and the risk of secondary leukemia development increases.
Key words: T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia, clinical case, acute myeloid leukemia, secondary leukemia, chemotherapy, phenotype switching.
