%X We describe the case of an 11 years old boy followed-up in our hospital for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) type L1, who presented vomiting during the specific chemotherapy. The antiemetic drugs were ineffective and the esophagogastroscopy showed a Mallory-Weiss tear. After prokinetic treatment, antacid medication and hydrogen pump inhibitors, his evolution was favorable, with the cessation of vomiting and the healing of esophageal tear.
