Primary Granulocytic Sarcoma Presenting as Bilateral Breast Masses
چکیده انگلیسی

Primary granulocytic sarcoma (GS) of the breast is rare. The sonographic finding of GS is nonspecific, mainly noncalcified hypoechoic lesion with ill-defined margin and hypervascularity. Correct diagnosis is important to avoid unnecessary surgery. However, distinguishing GS from metastatic malignancies or other hematologic malignancies is difficult if there is a lack of clinical information of known hematologic disorders in the patient. We describe a 51-year-old woman who initially presented with bilateral breast masses in whom histologic study revealed a pattern of GS. She was finally diagnosed to have acute myelogenous leukemia.
