Abstract
Severe unusual toxicity to 10 mg. of triethylene melamine was noted in a case of chronic myelogenous leukemia with production of a fatal aplastic anemia and thrombocytopenia. Discussion of the drug and pertinent literature reveals that no previous instance of such severe bone marrow depression occurred with so small a dose.Keywords
