Donor cell ‐derived chronic myelomonocytic leukemia presenting after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation for T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Donor cell (DC) leukemia is a rare cause of relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation and usually presents as acute myeloid leukemia. Uncommonly, other DC ‐derived hematologic malignancies can occur and usually have a poor prognosis. AbstractDonor cell leukemia is a very rare cause of relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT). Herein, we describe an unprecedented case of donor cell ‐derived chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) presenting seven years after a 51‐year‐old man received a matched‐related alloHCT from his 59‐year‐old brother for T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
