Introduction: Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is an extramedullary tumor that consists of myeloblasts and rarely involves the female reproductive organs. Intestinal Behçet's disease (BD) is a chronic, inflammatory illness that is often associated with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). When MDS is diagnosed, some patients with intestinal BD experience synchronous gastrointestinal flares.
Case Presentation: We report the case of a 49-year-old woman who presented with vaginal bleeding and an incidentally identified MS in the uterine cervix. Subsequent bone marrow biopsy showed simultaneous MDS without chromosomal abnormalities. This is the first reported case of concomitant MS, myelodysplastic disease, and intestinal BD.
Conclusions: The accurate diagnosis of MSs that develop at non-predominant sites is crucial for a positive patient prognosis. MDS should be suspected in patients with a history of intestinal BD diagnosed with MS.

Background: Ewing's sarcoma (EwS), a common pediatric bone cancer, is associated with poor survival due to a lack of therapeutic targets for immunotherapy or targeted therapy. Therefore, more effective treatment options are urgently needed.
Methods: Since novel immunotherapies may address this need, we performed an integrative analysis involving single-cell RNA sequencing, cell function experiments, and humanized models to dissect the immunoregulatory interactions in EwS and identify strategies for optimizing immunotherapeutic efficacy.

We report a 37-year-old male patient who had nonbilious vomiting, no passage of flatus, and recurring abdominal pain. This patient had de novo intestinal myeloid sarcoma (MS), a rare and chameleonic presentation of acute leukemia of myeloid origin. The initial diagnostic evaluation suggested Koch's abdomen, and surgical excision of the bowel was performed with a clinical suspicion of Koch's or lymphoma.

Ewing sarcoma (ES) is a malignant bone tumor prevalent among children and adolescents. Disulfidptosis represents a novel form of cell death; however, the mechanism of disulfidptosis in ES remains unclear. Our aim is to explore the disulfidptosis-related prognostic signature in ES.

Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is an extramedullary localization of immature granulocyte cells that can occur in association with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Gastrointestinal involvement is relatively common in MS, but exclusive colonic localization is a rare occurrence. Here, we report on a 53-year-old male patient affected by AML developing a severe abdominal pain caused by intestinal perforation requiring surgical intervention.
