Primary myeloid sarcoma of the gynecologic tract: a report of two cases progressing to acute myeloid leukemia

Abstract

Primary gynecologic myeloid sarcomas are rare, and their diagnosis is often difficult. Differential diagnosis includes lymphomas and carcinomas of the gynecologic tract. We report the clinical, morphological, immunohistochemical and cytogenetic features of two cases of chloromas of the female genital tract, which progressed to acute myeloid leukemia in spite of aggressive therapy.
