A Case of Pediatric Marfan Syndrome with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Deep Vein Thrombosis
Keywords:
Marfan syndrome, Acute myeloid leukemia, ThrombosisAbstract
We are demonstrating a 9-year-old girl, newly diagnosed Marfan syndrome, presented with deep vein thrombosis and acute myeloid leukemia. A few reports of Marfan syndrome with acute myeloid leukemia were published, none could identify correlation among them. To the best of our knowledge this would be the first pediatric case of Marfan syndrome with acute myeloid leukemia and thrombosis.
