Abstract
No valid treatment for isolated myeloid sarcoma (IMS) has yet been established, and no thorough genetic examinations have been performed because of its low incidence and unique manner of development. We herein report a 34-year-old man with pancreatic IMS with t(8;21)/RUNX1-RUNX1T1 rearrangement. He was treated with high-dose cytarabine followed by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). This is the first report of pancreatic IMS with t(8;21). Positron emission tomography/computed tomography and genetic study are useful for the diagnosis, and allo-HSCT achieved complete remission in this patient.
