영문 초록

Purpose: We report a case of the granulocytic sarcoma located at the conjunctival fornix in a 10-year-old girl with acute myeloid leukemia, who was in complete remission after bone marrow transplantation. Methods: A 10-year-old girl had a 1-week history of firm, dark brown conjunctival mass at lower fornix and mild lid swelling of the right eye. Several months previously she had had some chalazions at lower lid and a history of acute myeloid leukemia that was currently in complete remission after bone marrow transplantation. Other ocular manifestations were not specific. Excision of the conjunctival mass and a biopsy for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes were performed. Results: The 12×6×5 mm-sized mass was totally excised. The pathologic examination was consistent with granulocytic sarcoma. Three weeks after the biopsy, the patient had a relapse of acute myeloid leukemia. She died 2 months later while undergoing intensive therapy. Conclusions: This condition should be considered in the diagnosis of granulocytic sarcoma in patients with a history of acute myeloid leukemia.
