Leukaemic Cells

Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most frequent childhood cancer. Children usually present with signs of bone marrow failure like recurrent or prolonged fever, pallor, lethargy, bleeding tendencies, bone pain and others. Occasionally they may present with sign of infiltration of leukaemic cells into other organs such as testicular and central nervous system, rarely to the periorbital or orbital region. Similarly in relapse cases, they typically presented either in bone marrow, central nervous system relapse or testicular but rarely orbital involvement.  Here we report the clinical case of a five-year-old boy who developed relapsed B-ALL, presented to us with unilateral right eye swelling without other clinical findings and absence of blast cells in the peripheral blood film as well as bone marrow aspirate specimen.
