Mixed-phenotype acute leukemia relapse in the iris.
Mixed-phenotype acute leukemia is a rare condition with no previously reported intraocular involvement. We present clinical, radiologic, and cytologic findings of leukemic intraocular relapse in a 23-month-old girl, with lineage switch presenting as conjunctivitis after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. A diagnostic approach using fine needle aspiration is described.
