✦ Synopsis

A 24-year-old man with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia and leptomeningeal infiltration (confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging, and leukemic cells in the cerebrospinal fluid) was successful treated with systemic and intrathecal chemotherapy. Concomitantly, he developed an anal fissure, which deteriorated despite treatment with meropenem. The pain was so severe that he required multiple analgesics, with little symptomatic improvement.
