Abstract

Myeloid sarcoma is a type of malignant neoplasm composed of myeloblasts that locates extramedullary. The present study reports the case of a 31‑year‑old female who presented with upper abdominal pain, melena, vomiting and jaundice. The abdominal computed tomography revealed a mass in gastric antrum area and possible infiltration of the duodenum, gallbladder and head of the pancreas, with possible retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis. The tumor grew quickly and led to serious obstructive jaundice. New masses developed in the bilateral orbits and left breast within 2 months of admission. The pathological results of the gastroscopic biopsy and the fine‑needle biopsy of the breast revealed myeloid sarcoma. Transhepatic cholangial drainage, radiotherapy and chemotherapy were administered, but the disease reoccurred and became resistant to chemotherapy, so salvage allogenetic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation was performed. The disease relapsed at 5 months post‑transplantation, and chemotherapy and donor lymphocytes transfusions were then administered. The patient declined further treatment and succumbed to disease on May 19, 2015. The present study could improve the understanding of myeloid sarcoma and provide a reference for standardized and individualized treatments for this disease.
