摘要
Leukemic effusion is an uncommon presentation of Acute Myeloid leukemia with only isolated reports in literature. We report a case of 45 years old female who presented with unilateral pleural effusion and was diagnosed with haematological malignancy on pleural fluid cytology which revealed presence of myeloblasts. Subsequent, peripheral blood smear and bone marrow examination confirmed the diagnosis of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML M1). This case report highlights the uncommon presentation of AML as well as utility of meticulous examination of effusion fluids for diagnosing unsuspected malignancies.
