RESUMO
In the clinical settings, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and complications such as hemorrhage are commonly seen in acute promyelocytic leukemia patients, whereas thrombosis is rarely reported. We reported a case here that the patient presented with cerebral infarction as the first manifestation. During the admission, the patient encountered differentiation syndrome, pulmonary embolism, pulmonary hemorrhage, and myocardial ischemia, as well as bleeding and thrombosis complications. Hence the patient was diagnosed as DIC. After the treatment of blood transfusion instead of anticoagulation, his condition was stable and the remission was completely achieved. The treatment experience provides guides for other patients with similar complications of simultaneous bleeding and thrombosis.
