Abstract
Long-term survival of patients with a hematological malignancy has markedly improved over the last decades, largely because of more effective and more intense therapy. As the respiratory tract is frequently affected in hematological diseases, more patients develop a severe pulmonary complication during the course of their illness. Acute respiratory failure (ARF) is the leading cause of intensive care unit (ICU) admission among hematological cancer patients. Generally, the prognosis is considered to be poor, although there is a trend in recent years toward a higher rate of survival [1, 2].
