We report the case of a young patient with refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia relapse, after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation, who was treated by donor leukocyte infusions. We observed potent adoptive immunotherapy which produced a cytologic complete remission and total chimeric state. This was of short duration and the patient died of severe graft-versus-host disease. We present a short summary of the literature concerning acute lymphoblastic leukemia and donor leukocyte infusions.
