Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Hematology Oncology
  • Neuro-Ophthalmology

Background:

  • Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a significant hematologic malignancy in children, with generally better prognoses compared to adults.
  • While typically presenting with symptoms like fatigue or infection, AML can manifest unusually.

Observation:

  • A 15-year-old male presented with diplopia and unilateral orbital swelling, initially without neurological findings on imaging.
  • Initial blood work revealed significant leukocytosis, anemia, and thrombocytopenia.

Findings:

  • Peripheral blood smear analysis demonstrated over 10% blast cells, confirming the diagnosis of AML.
  • This case represents a rare initial presentation of pediatric AML.

Implications:

  • Unexplained diplopia in pediatric patients warrants a thorough hematologic workup to rule out conditions like AML.
  • Recognizing atypical presentations is crucial for timely diagnosis and improved outcomes in pediatric leukemia.
