ABSTRACT
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the only option for chemotherapy-refractory chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Extramedullary relapse after transplantation is rare and usually accompanies marrow relapse. Generally, the prognosis of extramedullary relapse is poor. Here, we report a man with extramedullary relapsed CML after stem cell transplantation that presented as an isolated cardiac mass, which has shown an indolent course for more than 2 years, without evolving to medullary relapse during that period. This case implies that the CML clone might contribute to the development of quiescent extramedullary relapse with a benign course.
