Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a rare extramedullary blast proliferation of immature cells of myeloid origin. It is commonly associated with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), or myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN), and may precede, coincide with, or follow the diagnosis of a myeloid disorder. MS treatment is controversial, but AML induction like regimens is usually recommended. We present an unusual case of mutated MDS/MPN overlap with bladder MS. Due to the high-risk nature of the disease, the patient was induced with decitabine and venetoclax combination therapy, resulting in complete remission. The response was further consolidated by an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
