Abstract

While extramedullary relapse of leukemia could occur, the parotid gland is a rare site of recurrence. Extramedullary relapse involving the parotid gland could be mistaken for other diseases. Moreover, the diagnosis of this disease is often delayed due to its rarity. Herein, we present a case of extramedullary relapse of acute lymphoblastic leukemia involving the parotid gland.

백혈병의 골수 외 재발이 발생할 수 있지만 이하선은 드문 재발 부위이다. 이하선을 포함하는 골수 외 재발은 다른 질환과 혼동될 수 있으며 종종 질환의 희귀성으로 인해 진단이 지연될 수 있다. 이에 저자들은 재발성 급성 림프아구성 백혈병 환자에서 이하선의 급성 림프아구성 백혈병의 골수 외 재발 사례와 영상 소견을 보고한다.
