Abstract:
Bone marrow necrosis (BMN) is a rare pathologic entity associated with a wide variety of diseases. We describe a patient with chronic myeloid leukemia on interferon treatment, who developed BMN with symptoms and signs masquerading as interferon toxicity. This is followed by a literature review of BMN in CML.
