ABSTRACT
Myocarditis was recently described as one of the complications secondary to COVID-19 vaccination. We present a 38-year-old lady diagnosed with vaccine-related myocarditis a few days after receiving the mRNA-1273 vaccine. We also summarize what is reported in the literature about the association between COVID-19 vaccination and myocarditis. In conclusion, COVID-19 immunization appears to be associated with significantly fewer adverse outcomes than COVID-19 infection among all age groups.
ABSTRACT
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm, classically described as a triphasic disease. However, little is known about risk factors for developing CML. Currently, ionizing radiation is the only established risk factor. Here, we report on a 37-year-old man treated for tuberculosis; 2 years later, he developed CML in a chronic phase. We would like to shed light on tuberculosis as a possible risk factor for CML.
