Li JK, Wang XX, Fu JJ, Zhang DD. Cervical myeloid sarcoma as an initial clinical manifestation: Four case reports. World J Clin Oncol 2024; 15:1324-1332. [DOI: 10.5306/wjco.v15.i10.1324] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2024] [Revised: 08/26/2024] [Accepted: 09/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cervical myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a rare hematological malignancy characterized by the formation of extramedullary soft tissue masses in the cervical region. Due to its uncommon presentation in the female reproductive system, cervical MS poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Consequently, there is a pressing need for more research and clinical experience to better understand, diagnose, and manage this condition effectively.
CASE SUMMARY This report details four cases, the diagnostic process, treatment strategy, and outcomes, discussing cervical MS as an initial clinical manifestation. The disease exhibits varied clinical presentations, such as irregular vaginal bleeding and palpation of cervical masses. The treatment approaches discussed include neoadjuvant chemotherapy, surgery, and postoperative chemotherapy, though managing the disease remains challenging. The report also features a comprehensive literature review that underscores the importance of immunohistochemistry for accurate diagnosis, identifying key markers, including myeloperoxidase, cluster of differentiation (CD) 68, and CD43, stressing the need for further research to improve treatment strategies and prognosis.
CONCLUSION Immunohistochemical diagnosis and tailored therapeutic strategies are essential. Further research is crucial in improving outcomes and developing effective treatment protocols.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a very rare condition, develops both in patients with other hematological neoplasms, and as isolated tumor. MS of the gynecologic tract is extremely rare. An available literature data about diagnosis and management of MS is summarized in the article. The role of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, surgery and bone marrow transplantation in the treatment is discussed. Polychemotherapy and allogeneic bone marrow transplantation were suggested to be the optimal treatment strategy of MS of the gynecological tract. The use of new targeted agents results in promising clinical data. CASE PRESENTATION We are presenting a rare clinical case of a MS of the uterine cervix with concomitant bone marrow involvement and describe all the peculiarities of the clinical course, diagnosis, and treatment. The patient received chemotherapy followed by allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. The pre-transplant therapy allowed us to perform allogeneic bone marrow transplantation with the deepest response possible: complete PET-negative and MRD-negative remission of the disease. CONCLUSIONS MS remains a subject of discussion regarding its diagnostic and therapeutic aspects. The use of novel targeting agents can be perspective option for patient with extramedullary disease.
