We present the case of a 29-year-old man admitted to our center for hematuria with coagulopathy, mild leukopenia and moderate thrombopenia. A diagnosis of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) secondary to Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia (APL) was made. Bleeding episodes due to DIC are one of the main causes of mortality at diagnosis in patients with APL. Currently there are lines of treatment with Arsenic Trioxide (ATO) and trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) that have replaced conventional chemotherapy regimens, with a decrease in bleeding rates. Therefore, an early diagnosis and treatment of DIC entails an increase in survival in these patients.
