We present a rare case of granulocytic sarcoma (chloroma) in the lateral neck as an initial manifestation of acute leukemia in a 37-year-old man. The lesion appeared as a solid mass with homogenous contrast enhancement on CT. Recognition of this rare entity is important, because early, aggressive induction chemotherapy can improve prognosis.
我们报告一例37岁男性患者,以颈部外侧粒细胞肉瘤(绿色瘤)为急性白血病的初始表现,此病例较为罕见。该病变在CT上表现为均匀强化的实性肿块。认识到这种罕见疾病很重要,因为早期积极的诱导化疗可以改善预后。
