	Granulocytic sarcoma - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A chloroma, or granulocytic sarcoma, is a solid tumor composed of immature malignant white blood cells called myeloblasts.
		A chloroma is an extramedullary manifestion of acute myeloid leukemia; in other words, it is a solid collection of leukemic cells occurring outside of the bone marrow.
		Recurrent granulocytic sarcoma: an unusual variation of acute myeloid leukemia associated with 8;21 chromosomal translocation and blast expression of the neural cell adhesion molecule.

		Granulocytic sarcoma is a rare extramedullary tumor composed of immature granulocytic precursors.
		Although usually associated with systemic disease in acute myeloid leukemia, granulocytic sarcoma may herald leukemic transformation in myelodysplastic disorders or diseases, including chronic myeloid leukemia, polycythemia rubra vera, myelofibrosis, and chronic eosinophilic leukemia [1,2].
		Walleye dermal sarcomas are associated with the presence of a complex retrovirus, walleye dermal sarcoma virus (WDSV).

	Radiology, University of Rochester Medical Center
		Granulocytic sarcoma (the preferred term, as not all lesions have the greenish tint) occurs primarily in 3-8% of all patients with acute/chronic myelogenous leukemia, but can also arise in patients with other myeloproliferative disorders, such as myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia, hypereosinophilic syndrome, polycythemia vera, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
		Granulocytic sarcomas may develop during the course of, or as a presenting sign of, myelogenous leukemia.
		It is believed that intracranial granulocytic sarcomas develop by migration of leukemic cells from the bone marrow via haversian canals, periosteum, and the dura to infiltrate the brain, where the pial-glial barrier has been disrupted.

		The evaluation revealed AML with granulocytic sarcoma in the form of a necrotic lung nodule with mediastinal adenopathy and pleural effusion.
		Involvement of the lung is less common with granulocytic sarcoma, and this particular presentation is distinctly unusual.

		Granulocytic sarcoma involving spine is a rare malignant neoplasm in patients with myeloid leukemia and occasionally in aleukemic patients.
		We report a case (with a review of literature) of granulocytic sarcoma dorsal spine presenting with acute spinal cord compression as the first manifestation during the remission phase of acute myeloblastic leukemia.
		The patient showed dramatic neurological recovery after surgical decompression of spinal cord and was subsequently treated by appropriate chemotherapeutic regimen and local radiotherapy.
