N2  - We   present   a   female   infant   who   presented   with   hematologic abnormalities, hepatosplenomegaly and eye problems and was initially considered  to  have  a  hematologic  malignancy.      Review  of  radiologic findings  however,  revealed  a  generalized  increase  in  bone  density, sclerosis  of  the  skull  and  vertebra,  and  ‘bone-in-bone’  appearance.  On  the  basis  of  the  clinical  history  and  the  characteristic  radiographic findings,  she was diagnosed with malignant infantile osteopetrosis
