Abstract:
granulocytic sarcoma (GS) is rare in the breast, histologically and immunophenotypically similar to myelogenous leukemia, radiologically lacking specificity, similar to breast cancer or mammary abscess. It should not be misdiagnosed as invasive cancer, especially in the case of frozen diagnosis, leading to excessive surgery. Three cases of GS were collected, specimens were fully drawn, microscopic pathologic examinations and immunohistochemistry (SP method) granulocytic sarcoma of breast were performed. The clinicopathological, immunohistochemical features, diagnosis and prognosis of GS are discussed to improve the awareness of the disease.
