Abstract | BACKGROUND:
Myeloid sarcoma is a tumor mass that consists of myeloblasts or immature myeloid cells at an extramedullary site. Pathological diagnosis is very difficult based on morphology if systemic signs of disease are absent. The subtype of myeloid sarcoma is also minimally identifiable in the histological picture. FINDINGS: CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicated that an immunohistochemical panel that included MPO, CD68 and CD34 could be used for the detection of blastic, differentiated and immature types of myeloid sarcoma. Changes in novel epigenetic regulators, including the loss of TET2 and gain of 5-hmC, as characteristics of myeloid malignancies may be useful novel markers of myeloid sarcoma.
