Özet
Aims: This retrospective study aims to emphasize clinicopathological data and diagnosis of an uncommon myeloid neoplasm;myeloid sarcoma. Methods: Data of all patients from 2000-2019 were retrieved from the archives of Trakya University Schoolof Medicine Hematology and Pathology Departments. Patients’ charts were examined retrospectively by collecting data including age, gender, anatomic site, history of hematological malignancy, blood count, pathological characteristics and treatmentsadministered. Results: There were 8 patients; 6 male and 2 female. The median age was 42.5 years (range: 29-69 years). Themost prevalently involved sites were skin, lymph node and bone/soft tissue. There were six patients as myeloid sarcoma withpreexisting or concurrent acute myeloid leukemia, one patient as de novo and one patient as acute myeloid leukemia with myelodysplasia related changes. One of the concurrent acute myeloid leukemia patients was Down syndrome related acute myeloidleukemia with myeloid sarcoma. Immunohistochemically, out of 8 patients, 4 were of myelomonocytic, 2 were of the myelocyticand 2 were of the monocytic differentiation. Conclusion: Myeloid sarcoma is a tumor mass made up of immature myeloid blastsappearing at an anatomical site other than bone marrow. Taking into account of having a challenging diagnosis, unusual cellularinfiltration at any site on a patient especially with a history of acute myeloid leukemia should have myeloid sarcoma in theirdifferential diagnosis. Keywords: Myeloid sarcoma, acute myeloid leukemia, myeloid neoplasia
