Galactorrhoea and amenorrhea as first symptoms of acute myeloid leukaemia: a case report and literature review
Background
Acute leukaemia is typically identified through clinical signs of cytopenia and/or a tumour syndrome, while paraneoplastic syndromes are rare in this context. We report a unique case of a 10-year-old girl who initially presented with inflammatory joint pain, night sweats, weight loss, amenorrhea, breast swelling, and galactorrhoea.
Observation
At diagnosis, she had an elevated prolactin (PRL) level (260.5 μg/L, reference < 25 μg/L) and biological evidence of hypogonadism. Blood counts revealed anaemia, thrombocytopenia, and 11 % circulating blasts. Bone marrow aspiration confirmed acute leukaemia, classified as FAB M5, with a KAT6A:CREBBP fusion transcript.
Discussion
Cerebrospinal fluid analysis was negative for blasts, and brain magnetic resonance imaging showed no leukemic infiltration of the pituitary gland or a concomitant pituitary tumour. PRL level normalized following chemotherapy.
Conclusion
In the absence of central nervous system involvement, ectopic PRL secretion by leukemic blasts appears to be the most plausible explanation for the elevated PRL levels in this case.
