    Abstract:
    Myelofibrosis is associated with a wide variety of neoplastic and non-neoplastic bone marrow diseases, predominately myeloproliferative neoplasms and acute myeloid leukemia. The following case documents an unusual patient presenting with pancytopenia and acute myelofibrosis accompanied by precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. This very rare clinical presentation raises questions concerning the relationship between concurrent occurrence of acute myelofibrosis and acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
