Summary:We present the clinical case of a 35 year old female, consulting because of pancytopenia and fever, presenting at the time of admission gingivorrhagia, epistaxis and a perianal lesion with diagnostic confirmation of acute promyelocytic leukemia with concomitant perianal myeloid sarcoma. Due to the rare clinical presentation we conducted a bibliographic search on the prognostic impact and eventually the requirement of treatment modification. Se reporta el caso de una paciente de 35 años que consulta por pancitopenia y fiebre, presentando al ingreso gingivorragia, epistaxis y una lesión perianal, con confirmación diagnóstica de leucemia promielocítica aguda con sarcoma mieloide perianal concomitante. Por tratarse de una presentación clínica poco habitual se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica sobre el posible impacto pronóstico y el eventual requerimiento de cambio en la estrategia terapéutica.
