Abstract:
:Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is an extramedullary myeloid neoplasm characterized by proliferation of myeloblasts which can occur in any organ or site. Bronchial and pulmonary involvement, however, is uncommon. We describe a case of bronchial MS in an 81-year-old female with a history of high-grade myelodysplastic syndrome; she was started on treatment few months before, and she presented with fever, cough and profuse hemoptysis. She was found to be pancytopenic with bilateral airspace consolidations, most notably in the right upper and lower lobes, on imaging studies. She was treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics and antifungals without much improvement in her clinical or radiological status. Ultimately, biopsy of the lung lesions showed myeloid sarcoma with concurrent Aspergillus fumigatus infection. Bronchial/pulmonary MS should be considered in the list of differential diagnoses in a patient with a history of myeloid neoplasm and presenting with respiratory related symptoms, as early administration of chemotherapy may help to improve survival rates.
