Abstract
We report on a case of mediastinal granulocytic sarcoma with cardiac infiltration in a young man with no evidence of leukemia involving the bone marrow or peripheral blood. Diagnosis was accomplished by immuno-histochemistry with expressions of myeloperoxidase and CD99 antigens. The patient achieved clinical remission, but evolved with febrile neutropenia during chemotherapy and died. Although subclinical cardiac infiltrations are commonly found at autopsy in patients with acute non-lymphoblastic leukemia, only one case of involvement of the heart with granulocytic sarcoma in the absence of bone marrow disease has been published in the literature. A diagnosis of granulocytic sarcoma should not be excluded when the biopsy of the bone marrow does not show any evidence of leukemic infiltration.
Relata-se o caso de um adulto jovem com sarcoma granulocítico (SG) mediastinal com infiltração cardíaca sem evidência de leucemia envolvendo medula óssea ou sangue periférico. O diagnóstico foi revelado pela imuno-histoquímica com positividade para mieloperoxidase e CD99. O paciente apresentou remissão clínica, porém evoluiu com neutropenia febril durante a quimioterapia e foi a óbito. Embora infiltrados cardíacos subclínicos sejam comumente detectados na autópsia em pacientes com leucemia aguda nãolinfoblástica, somente um caso de SG com envolvimento cardíaco na ausência de doença na medula óssea foi descrito na literatura. Um diagnóstico de SG não deve ser excluída quando a biópsia da medula óssea não mostrar nenhuma evidência de infiltração leucêmica.
