The tumor mass may precede or occur concurrently with AML, CML, myeloproliferative disorders, and/or myelodysplastic syndromes.

Isolated Uterine Myeloid Sarcoma Preceding the Diagnosis of Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

MS is an uncommon tumor complicating acute myeloid leukemia (AML), or less often myelodysplestic syndrome (MDS) and myeloproliferative disorders. Rarely, MS may precede the systemic onset of AML, which usually follows within months. We report a 36 year-old lady who presented with a cervical-uterine mass, w...
