Core Tip	Dasatinib is a second-line tyrosine kinase inhibitor used in imatinib resistant or intolerant chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute leukemia patients. Dasatinib, which binds to the active and inactive conformation of the BCR-ABL oncoprotein, demonstrates greater potency than imatinib for wild-type and mutant BCR-ABL cases, with the exception of the T315I mutation. The most frequent adverse effects include myelosuppression, diarrhea, nausea and peripheral edema. Severe dasatinib-relatedacute colitis without thrombocytopenia, coagulation abnormalities or colonic ulcers has rarely been reported. Here, we report the case of an adult patient with Philadelphia chromosome positive CML in the blastic phase who developed acute colitis after dasatinib use.
