ABSTRACT
Chronic myeloid leukemia is a myeloproliferative neoplasm which can present in chronic phase, accelerated phase, or blast crisis. Most of the children present in chronic phase. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors are used as a targeted therapy. Few children progress to blast crisis on therapy. The blast crisis occurs in the marrow. Very few cases are reported in adults with isolated central nervous system (CNS) blast crisis. Here we are reporting a rare case of isolated CNS relapse in a child.
