Abstract

Granulocytic sarcoma, or chloroma, is an uncommon presentation of acute leukemia. Cardiac involvement is very rare and usually diagnosed at autopsy. We present a case that discloses the essential role of transesophageal echocardiography for its in vivo diagnosis. The principal features with this imaging technique are finely described.
