Granulocytic sarcoma (GS) is a solid tumor that is the extramedullary presentation of acute myelogenous leukemia, other myeloproliferative disorders, or myelodysplastic syndromes. Less commonly, it also may arise as an isolated mass. In this report, we describe a 23-year-old female patient, with a GS in the uterus and we stress the value of diffusion weighted imaging for the evaluation of uterine neoplasms. To our knowledge, our case is the first in the literature to report diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) findings of GS.
粒细胞肉瘤(GS)是一种实体瘤,是急性髓系白血病、其他骨髓增殖性疾病或骨髓增生异常综合征的髓外表现。较少见的情况下,它也可能以孤立肿块的形式出现。在本报告中,我们描述了一名23岁的女性患者,其子宫内有粒细胞肉瘤,我们强调扩散加权成像在评估子宫肿瘤中的价值。据我们所知,我们的病例是文献中首例报告粒细胞肉瘤扩散加权成像(DWI)结果的病例。
