Drastic Multiorgan Dysfunction Due to Severe Leukostasis: A Case Report.

Leukostasis is a life-threatening complication that causes vascular occlusion leading to organ damage in leukemia patients. Organs with impairment due to leukostasis are usually the lungs and kidneys, but other organs may also be damaged. We experienced an autopsy case of severe infarction in multiple organs including the spleen probably due to leukostasis in a patient with acute myeloid leukemia.
