Acute myeloid leukemia presenting simultaneously in two siblings.

Abstract excerpt

The rare occurrence of acute myeloid leukemia simultaneously in two siblings, 3-year male and 1-year female, in the absence of any known predisposing condition is reported. We speculate that an initial in-utero genetic alteration followed by subsequent environmental exposure to some unknown toxin may have resulted in leukemogenesis.
