Abstract:
The treatment of primary proliferative polycythaemia (polycythaemia rubra vera) may include radioactive phosphorus (P32) in conjunction with venesection. Acute leukaemia or carcinoma can be associated with the use of P32. We present a case of primary proliferative polycythaemia treated by repeat venesection together with P32 whose follow-up was complicated by the development of malignant neuroblastoma.
