what are leukocytes?
basophils eosinophuls neutrophils monocytes lymphocytes
reasons affecting leukocyte production?

- many ___________ metastasize to the bone marrow, affecting leukocyte production
malignancies
nonhematologic malignancies
granulocytosis (neutrophilia)

-rate of progression: ____ or ____
myeloid, lymphoid
acute, chronic
acute leukemia
presence of undifferentiated or immature cells usually blast cells
-rapid onset with short survival
-disease is ________ bone marrow

predominant cell is mature but does not function normally
slow progression
disease starts ______ bone marrow
outside
for acute and chronic leukemia
the current classification of leukemia is based on
1. ___________ (either myloid or lymphoid)
2 __________(which usually reflects the degree at which cell differentiation was arrested when the cell became malignant (acute or chronic
predominant cell type
rate of progression
acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL)
disease is ______ bone marrow so:
-is defined as greater than 30% _______ in blood or bone marrow
-ALL is the most common leukemia in children
-ALL is a progressive _______ defined by the presence of greater that 30% lymphoblasts in the bone marrow or blood
acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL)
from the bone marrow
lymphoblasts
neoplasm
disease is myeloid so:
this is caused by an abnormal proliferation of _____ precursor cells
