Abstract
A 7 yr old girl was successfully treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia and remained in remission after treatment was completed in 3 yr. Four months after cessation of treatment, iridocyclitis with hypopyon developed in 1 eye. Exudate from the anterior chamber contained numerous lymphoblasts. Local radiotherapy led to complete resolution of the ocular lesions and the patient remains well 22 mo. later.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
