Adalimumab-induced acute myeloid leukaemia in a patient with Crohn's disease.

We present a patient with Crohn's disease under treatment with adalimumab who developed acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) with core-binding factor beta gene rearrangement. This case report emphasises the importance of long-term close follow-up of patients receiving adalimumab because of the increased risk of developing AML and other malignancies.
