Chronic myeloid leukemia mimicking primary myelofibrosis: A case report Anju S Jayalakshmy PLSankar Sundaram<p>Bone marrow fibrosis leading to dry tap aspiration and often associated with blast crisis has previously been reported in both Chronic myeloid leukemia and Primary myelofibrosis. The similarities between these two conditions in terms of clinical presentation and morphology can really create a diagnostic dilemma. Here we present a case of Chronic myeloid leukemia in fibrosis and blast crisis in a 32 year old lady which closely resembled Primary myelofibrosis in transformation. All myeloproliferative neoplasms can undergo blast transformation. In this case, the detection of Philadelphia chromosome helped to distinguish Chronic myeloid leukemia from other myeloproliferative neoplasms.</p> Archives of Hematology Case Reports and Reviews - Peertechz Publications 2021-02-02 Case Report https://doi.org/10.17352/ahcrr.000029 en Copyright © Anju S et al.
