Introduction: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has various clinical manifestations due to bone marrow or extra medullary involvement. Osteomyelitis may occur as the first presentation or relapsing sign of ALL. Multifocal osteomyelitis in non-neutropenic children with ALL is rare. Conclusions: Multifocal osteomyelitis should be kept in mind as a possible diagnosis in patients with leukemia, who are presented with prolonged fever.
