Myeloid sarcoma (MS), previously known as granulocytic sarcoma, is a rare, localized, tumor mass composed of myeloid precursor cells, with or without maturation, and occurring at an anatomical site other than the bone marrow (BM). Chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL), in contrast, is a B-cell hematological malignancy. We describe the first reported case of concurrent presentation of nodal MS and of BM CLL/SLL in the same patient. Fatal leukemic central nervous system infiltration was the final outcome. We provide possible explanations and investigate the pathophysiology of this unique, previously unreported co-morbidity.

Previous studies have reported visual motion aftereffects (MAEs) following prolonged exposure to auditory stimuli depicting motion, such as ascending or descending musical scales. The role of attention in modulating these cross-modal MAEs, however, remains unclear. The present study manipulated the level of attention directed to musical scales depicting motion and assessed subsequent changes in MAE strength.

An 11-year-old male Bengal tiger () was referred for a 2-week history of ambulatory tetraparesis, generalized ataxia, and hypermetric gait, associated with mild right head tilt and spontaneous proprioceptive deficit on the right forelimb. Neuroanatomical localization was C1-C5 myelopathy; cerebellum-vestibular system involvement was also considered. Hematology and serum biochemistry were unremarkable, although serum vitamin A (0.
