Popis: We describe the medical history of a 68-year-old woman with acute promyelocytic leukaemia. As primary treatment she received all-trans retinoic acid. For the major part this treatment could be given on an outpatient basis. After 60 days there was a complete remission of the leukaemia with disappearance of the characteristic cytogenetic abnormality t(15;17)(q22;q21).
