Background: in pediatric patients, chronic myeloid leukemia (cml) accounts for 2 to 5% of all the leukemia's but has an incidence of less than 1 case per 1,00,000 population younger than 20 years of age per year. cml is a clonal hematopoietic stem cell disorder. as per who classification, cml is included in myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative disorder. adult type - cml is extremely rare in childhood.case history: we report one such a case of adult type of cml in an 11 year old male patient with chief complaints of abdominal distension since 1 month and cough with fever since 4-5 days. the clinical differential diagnosis was malaria, storage disorder or tropical splenomegaly. though biological behaviour and prognosis are identical to that of adult type, we are reporting this case because of its extremely uncommon incidence
