Myeloid sarcoma in a newborn: A rare manifestation of congenital acute myeloid leukemia

摘要

Abstract Cutaneous myeloid sarcoma is rarely present prior to the diagnosis of congenital acute myeloid leukemia (AML); the?former is typically diagnosed with or after the leukemia. We report a 2‐day‐old male born with multiple cutaneous red to violaceous nodules. Histopathologic and immunohistochemistry findings from a skin nodule were suspicious for myeloid sarcoma. Bone marrow biopsy was initially negative for aberrant blasts; however, at age 4?months, AML with a KMT2A gene rearrangement was identified via bone marrow biopsy.
