Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia is a myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by the infiltration of blood and bone marrow by immature monocytes. Cerebral localization of chronic myelomonocytic leukemia has never been described.
CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of a Caucasian 59 year-old man with multiorgan chronic myelomonocytic leukemia infiltration, associated with uncommon brain involvement. There was no evidence of evolution to acute myeloid leukemia. The evidence of cerebral infiltration by chronic myelomonocytic leukemia was made after autopsy.
CONCLUSIONS: The fatal outcome of the patient raises the question of the potential benefit of early specific treatment, such as demethylating agents or intensive chemotherapy. Sharing such images of atypical and rapidly evolving chronic myelomonocytic leukemia and the disease history may help clinical decision-making in the future.
