ALL, CLL, HCL Flashcards

1
Q

differentiate between AML, ALL

A

1_AML: myeloblast, big people, big blasts, lots of nucleoli, lots of cytoplasm, lots of granules, aur rods, big toxicity, big mortality rate, MPO+, SBB+

2_ALL: lymphoblast, small people, small blasts, little cytoplasm, little nucleoli, no granules, little toxicity of treatment, little mortality rate, PAS+
