complaints of pallor and petechiae for 1 month. After diagnosis, improvement was remarkable with
chemotherapy of low dose cytosine arabinoside but the RAEB was transformed to acute myeloblastic
leukemia 4 months after treatmemt. Anti-leukemic therapy was tried but induction of remission was
failed and he was died of sepsis 3 months after the onset of leukemia.
