Abstract/Summary

-
Myeloid sarcoma (MS) as a solid extra-medullary (EM) manifestation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myeloproliferative or myelodysplastic syndromes is a rare presentation of relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The databases of the Departments of Hematology and Oncology of the University Hospitals of Jena and Rostock were screened for patients aged 18 years or older for onset of MS after HSCT for myeloid malignancies between 2002 and 2019. Nineteen patients with MS were identified, the majority of whom had received reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC). The median onset of MS was 425 days after HSCT and the median overall survival since MS was 234 days. Although MS is associated with a poor prognosis, three patients survived more than two years and one more than 11 years after MS onset. These results indicate that RIC protocols may be associated with a higher risk of EM relapse. Since EM relapse occurred in the presence of Graft-versus-host-disease, these observations also demonstrate the limitations of graft-versus-tumor effects after HSCT. In conclusion, occurrence of MS after HSCT is associated with a poor prognosis, as multimodal curative concepts including intensive chemotherapy and another HSCT are often not viable.
