Erythroid sarcoma is very rare form of pure erythroid leukemia with undetermined biological features. Here, we present an infant with a multifocal erythroid sarcoma, diagnosed because the tumor cells were positive for glycophorin A. After acute myeloid leukemia-oriented chemotherapy and surgical resection followed by cord blood transplantation, he has successfully maintained complete remission without any late effects. Total transcriptome analysis of the tumor identified a novel fusion gene, RCC1-LCK, and high LCK expression levels, suggesting that LCK overexpression was involved in leukemogenesis in this case.
