    Abstract:
    Myeloblastic involvement of the central nervous system has been noted in the course of chronic myeloid leukemia in the blastic phase; meningeal leukemia in the chronic phase of CML is almost unknown. We report on a case of CML in which meningeal infiltration by cells of the granulocytes series in all stage of cellular maturation developed 15 years after initial diagnosis and seven months after a myelofibrotic transformation of the systemic disease.
