This study presents three acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients with iris infiltration. It details the clinical presentation, diagnostic methods, and treatment strategies for this rare ocular complication.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Hematology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a hematologic malignancy.
  • Ocular involvement in ALL can occur, but iris infiltration is uncommon.
  • Early detection and management are crucial for preserving vision.

Observation:

  • Presents three cases of pediatric patients with ALL and leukemic infiltration of the iris.
  • Details the specific clinical manifestations observed in the iris.
  • Highlights the diagnostic procedures utilized to confirm leukemic infiltration.

Findings:

  • Leukemic infiltration of the iris in ALL presents with distinct clinical features.
  • Diagnostic techniques such as fine-needle aspiration and imaging are effective.
