Disseminated De Novo Myeloid Sarcoma in a 17‐year‐old Boy

Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a rare extramedullary tumor of malignant myeloid cells often associated with acute myeloid leukemia. We report a case of a 17‐year‐old boy presenting with diffuse red‐brown skin nodules ultimately diagnosed with the scarcely described disseminated, de novo MS. It is important...

Zusammenfassung:	Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a rare extramedullary tumor of malignant myeloid cells often associated with acute myeloid leukemia.

It is important for dermatologists to keep MS on their differential when assessing patients with disseminated red‐brown nodules.
