Figure 1 Sonographic image of the patient’s right breast.
A hypoechoic mass, measuring 3 cm 4 cm, was found in the upper inner quadrant.
Figure 2 Positron-emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging showed contrast enhancement of multiple masses in the upper inner quadrant of the right breast.
A: Magnetic resonance (MR) showed the mass was hyperactive on T1-weighted images; B: MR showed a soft tissue shadow in the right breast on T2-weighted images; C: Positron-emission tomography showed the fluorodeoxyglucose uptake of the right breast enhanced.
Figure 3 Positron-emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging showed densely enhancing homogeneous masses in the spinal canal at the C7/T1 levels.
A: Magnetic resonance (MR) showed the right side of C7/T1 vertebral body and its accessories as a low signal on T1-weighted images; B: MR showed soft tissue shadow at the C7/T1 levels on T2-weighted images; C: Positron-emission tomography showed the fluorodeoxyglucose uptake enhanced at the C7/T1 levels.
Figure 4 Granulocytic sarcoma of the breast in pathological study.
A: Histology showed a diffuse infiltrate of medium-sized cells with finely dispersed chromatin and small distinct nucleoli with scant cytoplasm (hematoxylin and eosin, × 200 magnification); B-F: Granulocytic sarcoma of the breast was positive for myeloperoxidase (B: × 200 magnification), CD117 (C: × 200 magnification), CD34 (D: × 200 magnification), CD68 (E: × 200 magnification) and Ki67 proliferation index approximately 80% (F: × 200 magnification).
Figure 5 Granulocytic sarcoma of the dorsal spine in pathological study.
A: Histology showed a diffuse infiltrate of intermediate-sized cells with scant cytoplasm and small nucleoli (hematoxylin and eosin, × 200 magnification); B-F: Granulocytic sarcoma of the dorsal spine was positive for myeloperoxidase (B: × 200 magnification), CD117 (C: × 200 magnification), lysozyme (D: × 200 magnification), CD34 (E: × 200 magnification) and CD38 (F: × 200 magnification).
