This document presents the case of an 18-year-old female admitted to the hospital with a 4-month history of fever, headache, weight loss and 15 days of shortness of breath. Examination revealed splenomegaly, bony tenderness and abnormalities in the right lung. Investigations showed pancytopenia, blasts in the blood and bone marrow consistent with precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia with Philadelphia chromosome and CNS involvement. Treatment involves supportive care and chemotherapy with induction, consolidation and maintenance phases along with CNS prophylaxis. The prognosis is poor given the adverse features in this case.
