Abstract

Myeloid sarcoma usually involves lymph nodes, and head and neck regions. Uncommon sites like testis and ovary are rarely involved and pose a diagnostic challenge. Nonspecific findings, difficulty in retrieving biopsy specimens, and associated infertility are few of the hurdles faced during diagnosis and treatment of testicular myeloid sarcoma. Our review is an attempt to study myeloid sarcoma involving testis.

Keywords: Acute myeloid leukemia; Chemotherapy; Chloroma; Myeloid sarcoma; Testis.
