Granulocytic sarcoma is an extramedullary tumor of malignant granulocytic progenitor cells, that may precede the onset of acute myeloid leukemia or appear during the leukemic manifestation or blastic crisis of chronic myeloproliferative disorders. We describe a case of granulocytic sarcoma of vagina in a 27 year old woman treated with local radiotherapy. After seven months of follow up she developed acute myeloid leukemia. The case has been presented in view of its rarity and discussed in light of the available literature.
粒细胞肉瘤是一种恶性粒细胞祖细胞的髓外肿瘤,可先于急性髓系白血病发病,或在慢性骨髓增殖性疾病的白血病表现或原始细胞危象期间出现。我们描述了一例27岁女性阴道粒细胞肉瘤患者,接受了局部放疗。随访7个月后,她发展为急性髓系白血病。鉴于该病例罕见,现予以报道,并结合现有文献进行讨论。
