Abstract Introduction/Objective Histiocytic sarcoma (HS) is rare (<1% of hematolymphoid neoplasms), and can present extranodally as disseminated disease. Immunophenotypically, the cells express CD163, CD68, lysozyme and CD45. HS often occurs as a secondary event following B-cell lymphomas, acute lymphoblastic leukemia or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) typically with monocytic differentiation retaining the same molecular/cytogenetic abnormalities as the primary tumor. Results Our patient, a 47 year old male was diagnosed with myeloid sarcoma (MS) following FNA of a new neck mass. A bone marrow biopsy revealed AML without monocytic differentiation. Flow cytometric findings of both marrow and neck mass were similar (positive for CD34, CD117, CD33, CD11b, CD13, CD15, CD64, CD7; negative for CD4, CD14, CD56). Karyotypic and FLT3 ITD mutation analysis were normal. CNS involvement was diagnosed 2 months later, while a marrow biopsy (status post therapy) confirmed resolution of AML. A hypermetabolic left perinephric mass noted by PET CT, when biopsied, showed large epithelioid polygonal cells with amphophilic cytoplasm and atypical vesicular nuclei (positive for CD68, PU.1; negative for LCA, CD163, CD34, CD4, pankeratin). A diagnosis of atypical epithelioid neoplasm suggestive of HS was rendered, although negativity for LCA and CD163 was unusual. No treatment was given for HS. A month later, the patient presented with a cheek mass diagnosed again as being suggestive of HS. His AML also relapsed. Next-generation sequencing (37 genes including BRAF) from both marrow and tissue samples detected the presence of a nonsense mutation in exon 7 of WT1 (p.Ser169). Conclusion Our case appears to be the first reported one of disseminated HS preceded by MS and concomitant AML, lacking monocytic differentiation. The findings overall support the hypothesis of origin as being from a common progenitor cell differentiating along both myeloid and histiocytic/other cell lineages at different time points.

Abstract Introduction/Objective A 46-year-old female presented with severe back pain associated with progressive bilateral lower extremity weakness and paresthesia, urinary retention, and constipation. Computed tomography revealed a retroperitoneal mass encasing the right psoas muscle, obstructing the right kidney, and extending to the thoracolumbar region resulting in severe spinal compression. An epidural tumor resection was subsequently performed at an outside hospital. Methods Histological sections showed sheets of blastoid neoplastic cells with intermediate to large nuclei, irregular membranes, fine chromatin, and prominent nucleoli. Immunohistochemical stains showed that these cells were positive for CD43, CD79a (weak, focal), BCL2, C-MYC, and PAX5 (weak, focal) and negative for CD10, CD20, CD30, ALK1, BCL6, MUM1, and Tdt. The Ki-67 proliferation index was 75-80%. With this immunophenotype, this patient was diagnosed with a high grade B-cell lymphoma and transferred to our institution for further work-up. On review of the slides, further immunohistochemical testing was requested which revealed positivity for CD117 and myeloperoxidase (MPO). Results The overall morphological and immunophenotypical features are most compatible with myeloid sarcoma (MS) with aberrant expression of B-cell markers and this patient’s diagnosis was amended. Interestingly, the patient’s bone marrow examination only showed 2% myeloblasts with left shifted granulocytosis and concurrent fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies were negative. Conclusion A literature review showed that 40-50% of MS are misdiagnosed as lymphoma. MS can frequently stain with B-cell or T-cell markers, as seen in this case, which makes it challenging for an accurate diagnosis and sub- classification. In addition, our case is interesting in that there was only extramedullary presentation without bone marrow involvement. Typically, MS develops after the diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with an incidence of 3–5% after AML. It can also manifest de novo in healthy patients, who then go on to develop AML months to years later. Therefore, this patient will require close follow-up.

We report the rare occurrence of donor-derived myeloid sarcoma in two kidney transplant patients who received organs from a single deceased donor. There was no evidence of preexisting hematologic malignancy in the donor at the time of organ recovery. Both recipients developed leukemic involvement that appeared to be limited to the transplanted organ. Fluorescencein situhybridization (FISH) and molecular genotyping analyses confirmed that the malignant cells were of donor origin in each patient. Allograft nephrectomy and immediate withdrawal of immunosuppression were performed in both cases; systemic chemotherapy was subsequently administered to one patient. Both recipients were in remission at least one year following the diagnosis of donor-derived myeloid sarcoma. These cases suggest that restoration of the immune system after withdrawal of immunosuppressive therapy and allograft nephrectomy may be sufficient to control HLA-mismatched donor-derived myeloid sarcoma without systemic involvement.

Myeloid sarcoma represents the proliferation of myeloblasts of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) at extramedullary sites. While extramedullary involvement in AML is uncommon in itself, isolated myeloid sarcomas, that is, myeloid sarcomas without any bone marrow involvement, are extremely rare and pose a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Here, we present the case of a middle-aged woman with isolated myeloid sarcoma in the stomach—an organ seldom involved by this disease. Additionally, the literature on the epidemiology, diagnosis, pathology, prognosis, and therapeutic options in myeloid sarcomas has been reviewed.
