Source abstract
BACKGROUND: T-acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (T-ALL/LBL) is a type of cancer that originates from immature blood cells committed to developing into T-cells. These cancerous cells multiply uncontrollably and can lead to the development of leukemia or lymphoma. METHODS: We describe a rare case of a 13-year-old male patient who presented with acute renal failure as the first manifestation of acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma. RESULTS: The patient was ultimately diagnosed with T-ALL/LBL based on a comprehensive diagnosis of bone marrow examination and biopsies of lymph nodes and kidneys. CONCLUSIONS: It is uncommon for acute renal failure to be an initial indication of T-ALL/LBL, and a comprehensive diagnosis involving bone marrow and histopathology examinations is crucial for its accurate diagnosis.
