Abstract

Myeloid sarcoma initially occurring in the sacral canal is often misdiagnosed as other pathological tumors on MRI due to the lack of a definite history or clinical evidence of granulocytic leukemia. Here, we report a case of 24-year-old male patient with myeloid sarcoma misdiagnosed radiologically. On MRI, sacral myeloid sarcoma is characterized by homogeneous signal intensity, marked enhancement, and the lack of cystic degeneration, calcification and necrosis. Based on our study of this patient and review of the relevant literature, we believe that these MRI features in the sacral region may help us differentiate it from other pathological tumors, which could prompt further clinical examinations to confirm the diagnosis of granulocytic leukemia.

Özet

Başlangıçta sakral kanalda oluşan myeloid sarkom sıklıkla kesin bir öykü veya granülositik lösemi için klinik bulgular olmaması nedeniyle MRGde yanlışlıkla başka patolojik tümörler tanısı konur. Burada radyolojik olarak yanlış tanı konmuş myeloid sarkomlu 24 yaşında bir erkek hasta bildiriyoruz. MRGde sakral myeloid sarkom homojen sinyal şiddeti, belirgin kontrast tutma ve kistik dejenerasyon, kalsifikasyon ve nekroz bulunmamasıyla karakterizedir. Bu hasta ve ilgili literatürü gözden geçirmemiz temelinde sakral bölgede bu MRG özelliklerinin bu lezyonu diğer patolojik tümörlerden ayırt etmemize yardımcı olacağını ve granülositik lösemi tanısını doğrulamak için başka klinik incelemelerin yapılmasını sağlayabileceğini düşünüyoruz.
