Chloroma of Orbit: A Rare Initial Presentation in A Case of Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Leukemia is the most common malignancy of childhood. Chloromas are rare presentations of underlying leukemic disease. It is important to diagnose these cases early in the course as they respond more favourably to focal irradiation. We present a rare case of chloroma of orbit in a young male patient who presented with severe proptosis and a large mass involving the left orbit. The orbital lesion was the initial presentation which led to further diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia in our case. The patient was evaluated radiologically for the extension of disease and treatment planning.
