| Abstract |
|
We experienced 2 cases of agranulocytosis induced by acetanilid and dilantin in Dept, of Pediatrics of
Seoul Red Cross Hospital in 1971.
One who was a 8 year old boy showed complete recovery, clinically as well as in hematologic aspects
within one week after discontinuation of dilantin medication by which agranulocytosis was thought to be
induced. Bone marrow aspiration performed on recovery showed myelocytic hyperplasia.
The other case who was a 13 year old boy was hospitalized in two occasions with similar physical and
hematologic findings after taking “Panto®” containing acetanilid component. Peripheral blood findings showed
continuous leukopenia and neutropenia, in the range of 1, 500〜5, 000 WBC count with 1. 〜27% neutrophiles,
in spite of clinical improvement up to date.
Brief review of literatures was done.
