Abstract

This report describes a case of unilateral, multicentric granuiocytic sarcoma (chloroma) of the breast in a patient with relapsing acute myelogenous leukemia. The mass in the breast disappeared completely despite the failure to control AML-M4. The patient died 6 weeks later of intracranial hemorhage due to thrombocytopenia. [Turk J Cancer 1998;28(2);84-87]
