title: Non hodgkin's lymphoma seven years following remission of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
abstract: The authors describe a case of extramedullary relapse in lymph node presenting as lymphoblastic lymphoma seven years following remission of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of an isolated lymph node relapse with hematopoietic remission of leukemia. We have discussed cases of large cell lymphoma and other unusual areas of extramedullary relapse complicating acute lymphoblastic leukemia in hematopoietic remission.
