Abstract

A case of bilateral breast infiltration as the initial manifestation of FAB-L3 leukemia during pregnancy is reported. This rare presentation is usually associated with Burkitt's lymphoma or FAB-L3 leukemia. A high suspicion of the presence of hematologic malignancy and appropriate evaluation are indicated in the presence of this clinical manifestation.
