    Abstract:
    The follow-up of a 93-year-old-patient with polycythaemia vera (PV) diagnosed in 1977 is presented. The patient accidentally received a ten-fold overdose of radioactive P32 due to an incorrectly labelled vial. 14 days after the administration of the overdose of P32, the patient was admitted to the University Hospital of Zurich with bone marrow aplasia. She recovered from the aplasia within 6 weeks. During the following 15 years she has suffered no relapse nor developed leukemia as a secondary complication.
