MalignancyCase Report: Systemic Sarcoidosis Preceeding Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

The authors report the case of a 59-year-old woman who developed acute myeloid leukemia nine months after the resolution of systemic sarcoidosis treated by corticosteroid therapy. This rare case poses the questions of the physiopathogenic mechanisms, particularly a granulomatous reaction to leukemic antigens or to cytokines or of the role of an infectious agent.
