Sažetak

Myeloid sarcomas are rare manifestations of mainly myeloblastic leukemia. Their occurrence in the central nervous system is exceptional and current literature is limited to case studies. A case is added herewith and a review was performed to investigate clinical characteristics and treatment options of central nervous system myeloid sarcoma. A 61-year-old female with acute myeloblastic leukemia (FAB M5) and progressive left sided hemiparesis showed a right parieto-occipital epidural lesion mimicking meningioma. Partial resection was performed to reveal a myeloid sarcoma. Reviewing the literature we identified 44 cases with sufficient description of the diagnosis, treatment and follow up to one year. In these patients different treatment regimens were applied. However, when systemic chemotherapy or irradiation was included in the treatment regimen, patients showed the best 1-year survival proportion.
