Core Tip Here, we report a case of a patient with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) combined with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). Addition of carrimycin in a patient with tuberculosis in remission thus enabling chemotherapy for leukemia. He could not tolerate the side effects of routine anti- tuberculosis drugs because of a low white blood cell count, so carrimycin was used for treatment for PTB. He achieved complete remission of APL and PTB after six months treatment. Further research is necessary to determine whether carrimycin is therapeutically useful in PTB.
