One case of myeloid sarcoma with multiple space occupying lesions in the spinal canal / 中华神经科杂志

ABSTRACT

Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a tumor mass formed by the proliferation of one or more myeloid primitive cells outside the marrow, which is mostly related to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It is reported that 2.5% to 9.1% of AML patients have MS, and AML with spinal canal MS is very rare. Spinal canal MS often has an acute onset and is difficult to diagnose. It is easy to cause missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis, which will lead to a delay in accurate diagnosis seriously affecting the treatment and quality of life among these patients. The clinical data, diagnosis and treatment process of a case of MS with multiple space occupying lesions in the spinal canal diagnosed and treated by the Department of Hematology of Peking Union Medical College Hospital are reported, in order to provide reference for clinical workers.
