 AB    Malignancy occurs in 2-4% of children infected with human
       immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The most commonly reported type is
       non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. We describe the first reported case of chronic
       myelogenous leukemia (CML) in a child infected with HIV. The initial
       diagnosis was consistent with Philadelphia chromosome positive acute
       lymphocyte leukemia. However, on review of the patient's history and the
       persistence of the Philadelphia chromosome, the diagnosis of CML was
       made. CML needs to be added to the list of malignancies seen in patients
       with HIV.
