We report the case of a 56 year-old man in remission of a Hodgkin's disease who had an acute myelomonocytic leukemia with major edemas. Chemotherapy temporarily allowed a concomitant regression of edemas, hyperleukocytosis and tumor necrosis factor and interleukin-6 levels which were initially elevated. We discuss the role of these two cytokines in endothelium permeability disorders.
