XANTHOMA OR CHLOROMA

XANTHOMA OR CHLOROMA In September 1941 we had completed fifteen years of follow-up records on a boy whose case was reported by one of us1 in 1930 as one of chloroma. There have been so many inquiries about this patient that a report of his course to date may not be unwelcome. The very fact of his continued existence has led some to question the accuracy of the original diagnosis. The most commonly suggested alternative has been xanthoma. It seems wise, therefore, to reconsider this entire case in the light of the more recent studies published since 1927, when the original diagnosis of chloroma was made. REPORT OF PATIENT'S COURSE FROM 1929 TO 1941 Kenneth D., a white boy born Feb. 15, 1925, was admitted first to the University of California Hospital on Sept. 29, 1926.

Abstract

In September 1941 we had completed fifteen years of follow-up records on a boy whose case was reported by one of us1 in 1930 as one of chloroma. There have been so many inquiries about this patient that a report of his course to date may not be unwelcome. The very fact of his continued existence has led some to question the accuracy of the original diagnosis. The most commonly suggested alternative has been xanthoma. It seems wise, therefore, to reconsider this entire case in the light of the more recent studies published since 1927, when the original diagnosis of chloroma was made. REPORT OF PATIENT'S COURSE FROM 1929 TO 1941 Kenneth D., a white boy born Feb. 15, 1925, was admitted first to the University of California Hospital on Sept. 29, 1926. A complete account of his history and of the examinations,
