She had no cough, sputum, hemoptysis or fever. Although the patient migrated from Syria, which had a high prevalence of TB, she had no contact with TB. Her family history revealed that her sister was diagnosed with leukemia. On her physical examination, a mobile, 2<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>cm sized lymphadenopathy extending to the thyroid was found in the left supraclavicular fossa. On examination of the respiratory system, the left hemithorax was less involved in breathing and there was a matite up to the upper zone. Abdominal examination revealed splenomegaly and mild ascites, no hepatomegaly. In the laboratory findings; the blood white cell count was 8410 per microliter (mcL) and 71.5% were neutrophils and 19.1% were lymphocytes. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate was 10<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm/h. On chest X-ray, diffuse opacity reaching the apex was observed on the left. Computed tomography of the thorax which was taken four days ago in another health center; bilateral left greater pleural effusion, pericardial effusion close to 1<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>cm, and conglomerated lymphadenopathies surrounding the vascular structures of the mediastinum were observed.

Interferon gamma release test for latent TB was negative. Cytological examination of fluid showed atypical T-cell proliferation and was found to be compatible with T-cell lymphoma or leukemia. Excisional biopsy of the left supraclavicular lymphadenopathy was performed for definitive diagnosis, reported as T-lymphoblastic type leukemia and treatment was initiated.
