Myeloid Sarcoma Involving the Breast

Abstract

Myeloid sarcoma involving the breast is uncommon. In the literature, as in this study, these tumors most often represent relapse or the initial presentation of acute myeloid leukemia. However, 2 of the cases we report presented with isolated masses, without a history or subsequent development of acute myeloid leukemia at last follow-up. Immunohistochemical studies are extremely helpful for recognizing isolated myeloid sarcoma.
