RESUMO
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.
