Abstract
We report a novel case of spontaneous hematologic and cytogenetic remission in a patient with acute myelogenous leukemia with inv(16)(p13q22) after a systemic infection as well as transfusion of blood. Although spontaneous complete remission is a rare occurrence, we present a review of the current literature, emphasizing a diagnostic approach and associated factors.
