title: Multiple relapses in extramedullary localization of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
abstract: Extramedullary relapses of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children and young adults are rare and in most cases are usually related to the central nervous system or testes. We describe a case of a 25-year-old man with an acute lymphoblastic leukemia with multiple extramedullary relapses in the testes, gallbladder, breast, parotid gland and eye at various times (Fig. 5, Ref. 21).
