Abstract
All- retinoic acid (ATRA) is the mainstay of treatment in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia. Despite being effective, it can lead to cardiac complications either as a component of ATRA syndrome or an isolated form denominated as ATRA-induced isolated perimyocarditis. We present a case of this complication and review the literature. ().
