Abstract

Myeloid Sarcoma (MS) is a tumour mass of myeloblasts or immature myeloid cells in an extra-medullary site. Isolated MS is a red disease found only seen in case reports. Here, we present the case of a 25years old man with bilateral cervical lymphadenopathy who was diagnosed as MS on the basis of lymph node biopsy and immunohistochemistry. There is no definite consensus on management of MS and needs prospective trials.
