Abstract
A previously healthy 2-year-old female infant presented with pancytopenia and was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Before the initiation of treatment, she developed symptoms concerning for increased intracranial pressure. Head imaging revealed left parietal hemorrhage, in addition to a right vitreous hemorrhage, which was confirmed on ophthalmology examination later. Terson syndrome, in which intraocular hemorrhage is associated with intracranial hemorrhage, is more commonly reported in adults, although ocular manifestations of leukemia have been reported at presentation and are typically asymptomatic.Entities:
