Abstract

A 40-year-old male patient who was a known case of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) was diagnosed two years back on tab imatinib 400 mg/day; he came with complaints of easy fatigability, syncopal attacks, and bone pain associated with low-grade fever for 15 days. Repeat haematological profile and a peripheral smear of the patient suggested features of plasma cell leukaemia (PCL)/plasma cell dyscrasia (PCD). A definitive treatment protocol of lenalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone for PCL was prescribed to the patient. This medical case study emphasizes the rare possibility of the transformation of CML into PCL and the possible trigger of tyrosine kinase inhibitor for the same.
