RESUMO
Case of a patient with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) positive for mutations in both genes NPM1 and FLT3-ITD who underwent two allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCT); the second allograft one was followed by extramedullary relapse (granulocytic sarcoma of right breast), with blast cells positive for FLT3-ITDmutation. Treatment with Gilteritinib, a second generation selective oral type I FLT3 inhibitor, was started after the second HSCT with complete regression of breast granulocytic sarcoma in absence of hematological and extra hematologic toxicity. We conclude that Gilteritinib can represent an effective therapy for extra hematologic relapse, with acceptable toxicity and outpatient management.

No data on the relationship between allergic sensitization to animal dander and milk allergens are available in literature in adults. Considering the high rate of allergic sensitization to mammals in atopic adults living in Naples area, we aimed to evaluate if sensitization to milk allergens could be a risk factor for these subjects. From 755 consecutive outpatients examined between May 1 2009 and December 31 2010, we selected those with an immediate skin reaction to animal dander and milk. A clinical history including evaluation of pet exposure, the results of skin-prick tests (SPTs) and specific IgE antibodies for milk allergens were recorded. Among three hundred sixty SPT-positive patients, 140 were sensitized to animal dander (38.9%) and 9 to milk allergens (6.4%). Among one hundred forty patients sensitized to animals only one was sensitized also to milk allergens; among 9 milk-sensitized individuals 5 were allergic also to animal allergens (only one to cow dander) while 4 were not sensitized to mammals. Our results suggest that relationship between allergic sensitization to milk and animal allergens is negligible in adult atopic individuals living in urban area of Naples and that high rate of sensitization to animals is likely to be due to other mechanisms such as direct/indirect exposure, and allergen cross-reactions.
