AB A  2-year-old  girl  presented  to  her  pediatrician  with  a  one  month  history  of  swollen  glands  in  her  neck  and  under  her  arms.  Physical  examination  revealed  non-tender  firm  lymphadenopathy  in  the  anterior  and  posterior  lymph  node  chains  bilaterally  (Figure  33-1).  Work-up  revealed  anemia,  neutropenia  and  thrombocytopenia.  Biopsy  of  the  lymph  nodes  and  bone  marrow  biopsy  showed  acute  lymphoblastic  leukemia.  She  underwent  induction  chemotherapy  and  has  responded  well.
