    Abstract:
    The case of a 55-year old man who was affected simultaneously by acute myeloblastic leukaemia (AML) and adenoid cystic carcinoma of the palate is reported. The carcinoma was removed after induction chemotherapy for AML and the patient subjected to consolidation therapy. No reports are evident of other cases in which acute leukaemia and other malignancies were treated simultaneously, and in which the patient was cured of both. It is suggested that this case may serve as a reference for future similar cases.
