Abstract
We report on the case of a patient diagnosed with acute leukaemic transformation of chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia. Its development was characterised by blastic pulmonary localisation and response to corticosteroids. We discuss the etiologies of respiratory distress in acute myeloblastic leukaemia and the corticosteroid sensitivity of this myeloid disease.
