Myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with FGFR1 rearrangement (MLN-FGFR1) comprise a heterogeneous group of that can present as myeloproliferative neoplasm, myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative acute myeloid leukemia, T or B lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma, mixed phenotype leukemia. The overall outcome these is poor, and patients often show cytogenetic evolution gain additional chromosomal abnormalities le...

We conducted a retrospective study of patients with cutaneous myeloid sarcoma, from 2 tertiary care institutions. Eighty-three patients presented, with a mean age of 52 years. Diagnosis of myeloid sarcoma in the skin was difficult due to the low frequency of myeloperoxidase and/or CD34+ cases (56% and 19% of tested cases, respectively). Seventy-one of the 83 patients (86%) had ≥ 1 bone marrow b...

Background. Myeloid sarcoma is an extramedullary neoplasm of immature myeloid cells. Our study reports a presentation of myeloid sarcoma which presented with severe leukemoid reaction as a secondary malignancy in a patient who was treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia previously. The case emphasizes the difficulties in diagnosis of patients who do not have concomitant leukemia. Case Presenta...

Myeloid sarcoma is a rare condition that's caused by the aggregation of immature myeloid cells in leukemic patients.

The disease is difficult to diagnose when it presents with symptoms that mimic otomastoiditis. However, an earl...
