Myeloid sarcoma is a rare tumor mass with extra medullary growth pattern, composed of myeloblast or immature myeloid cells. (MS) distinct clinical presentation acute leukemia (AML) where less than 1% patients present prominent disease which most commonly involves the bone, skin, lymph node, soft tissues, gastrointestinal tract testes. The recommended treatment regimen in isolated bone marrow in...

Myeloid sarcoma is a rare aggressive tumour that originates from immature extramedullary myeloid cells. It can be seen as a relapse in patients with acute myeloid leukaemia. Sometimes it can be seen in the form of a solid tumour without any evidence of leukaemia. A case of a 44-year-old male patient who was admitted with symptoms and signs of mechanical intestinal bowel obstruction was operated...

The development of acute myeloid leukaemia after low-dose radioiodine therapy and its presentation as a myeloid sarcoma of the uterine cervix are both rare events. We report a case of acute myeloid leukaemia revealed by a myeloid sarcoma of the uterine cervix in a 48-year-old woman, 17 months after receiving a total dose of 100 mCi (131)I for papillary thyroid cancer. A strict hematological fol...

Myeloid sarcoma is a rare malignant disease defined as extramedullary infiltration of immature myeloid cells and may precede or occur synchronously with acute myeloid leukemia. We reported a 35-year-old male of isolated myeloid sarcoma who presented with symptoms similar to chronic rhinosinusitis initially. Isolated myeloid sarcoma in the paranasal sinuses is exceedingly rare after reviewing th...

Since its discovery 10 years ago, the FIP1L1-PDGFRA mutation has been associated with a wide spectrum of hematopoietic neoplasms which range from T-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma, chronic eosinophilic leukemia, chronic myeloid leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, myeloid sarcoma and systemic mastocytosis. Common between these neoplasms was eosinophila and sensitivity to imatinib and other tyrosin...

Cicilet S, et al. BMJ Case Rep 2017. doi:10.1136/bcr-2017-220503 Description A 45-year-old woman presented with severe lower abdominal pain and vomiting. On physical examination, she was found to have tenderness in the suprapubic region and right iliac fossa. An ultrasound abdomen performed to rule out acute appendicitis and pelvic inflammatory disease was not contributory. Blood parameters wer...

Myeloid sarcoma is a tumor mass of immature myeloid or granulocytic cells that affects extramedullary anatomic sites, including uncommonly the oral cavity. A 24-year-old female was referred for evaluation of a fast growing painful gingival swelling lasting 2 weeks, associated with fever, fatigue, and cervical lymphadenopathy. Intraoral examination showed a bluish swelling on the right posterior...

Study Design Case report. Objective Myeloid sarcoma (also known as chloroma) is a rare, extramedullary tumor composed of immature granulocytic cells. It may occur early in the course of acute or chronic leukemia or myeloproliferative disorders. Spinal cord invasion by myeloid sarcoma is rare. The authors report a rare case of spinal myeloid sarcoma presenting as cervical radiculopathy. Methods ...
