Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

A primary extramedullary myeloid cell tumor (pEMT) of an inguinal lymph node was completely excised without subsequent anti-tumor therapy in a 6-year-old child. Clinical observation and monitoring of blood and bone marrow (BM) did not reveal any pathologic results before 32 months, when a precursor B lymphoblastic leukemia was diagnosed. Identical T-cell receptor gamma rearrangement in nodal pEMT and in precursor B lymphoblastic leukemia in BM indicates a clonal relationship of these two tumors.
