title: [Alterations of te ocular fundus in a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (author's transl)].
abstract: A report on a boy with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, who was treated with cytostatic drugs and radiation. In the course of treatment retinal changes occurred in one eye; at first they seemed to indicate a solitary ocular relapse. Later on characteristic serological findings made it appear likely that the child was suffering from cytomegalic retinitis. The differential diagnosis of leukemic ophthalmopathy and the prognosis of leukemia with ophthalmopathy are discussed.
