finals - neoplastic Flashcards
Classifications of Leukemia
- Chronologic (based on natural history)
- Cytologic (based on predominant cell type)
- Classification based on functional capacity of release mechanism
- Classification based on localized proliferation of cells of the same
type
a Chronologic classification of leukemia is about whether it is __ or ____
acute or chronic
are generalized neoplastic proliferation or accumulation of
leukopoietic cells with or without involvement of the peripheral
blood
LEUKEMIAS
group of malignant disorders affecting blood and blood forming
tissue of the bone marrow, lymph system and spleen
leukemia
what are the cells affected by acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
all cells coming from common lymphoid progenitors
CML- chronic myelogenous leukemia
affects what cells
all cells coming form common myeloid progenitors
ex. eosinophil, neutrophil, rbc
CLL means
chronic lymphocytic leukemia
CML means
chronic myelogenous leukemia
ALL means
acute lymphocytic anemia
ANLL
acute neo lymphocytic/lymphoblastic leukemia
Myeloproliferative Disorders has ___ numbers of cells produced
increased= panmyelosis
thrombocythemia means
high platelets but not from a certain condition
myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia/ MMM means
scarcity in bone marrow
myelodysplastic anemia
refractory anemia - no response to a treatment provided to anemia
no response to a treatment provided to anemia
refractory anemia
based on natural history means
either if it’s chronic of acute
cytologic based classification is about the predominant cells which is about
common myeloid or common lymphoid progenitors
Classification based on functional capacity of release mechanism
the total number of wbc
the most common form of leukemia in children
acute leukemia
characterized by a rapid increase in the numbers of immature blood cells
Acute Leukemia
a type of anemia that is rapidly progressing, lasting for several days to six
months
Acute Leukemia
characterized by the excessive build-up of relatively MATURE , but still ABnormal, white blood cells
Chronic Leukemia
mostly occurs in older people, but can theoretically
occur in any age group
Chronic Leukemia
example of acute leukemia
acute lymphoblastic leukemia - affecting cells from the common lymphoid progenitors
mostly occurs in older people, but can theoretically
occur in any age group
Chronic Leukemia
most patients will live a minimum of 1 or 2 years or
more; may not cause symptoms for years
Chronic Leukemia
type of leukemia that is lasting from two to six months or even twelve months
Sub-acute Leukemia
Comparison of Acute and Chronic Leukemia: Based on Clinical and
Lab Manifestation
onset
acute - abrupt
chronic - insidious
Comparison of Acute and Chronic Leukemia: Based on Clinical and
Lab Manifestation
death
acute - within months
chronic - within years
Comparison of Acute and Chronic Leukemia: Based on Clinical and
Lab Manifestation
age
acute - all
chronic - adults
Comparison of Acute and Chronic Leukemia: Based on Clinical and
Lab Manifestation
appearance of cell
acute - blasts
chronic - mature but abnormal
Comparison of Acute and Chronic Leukemia: Based on Clinical and
Lab Manifestation
wbc count
acute - elevated/normal/ low
chronic - elevated
Comparison of Acute and Chronic Leukemia: Based on Clinical and
Lab Manifestation
neutropenia
acute - present
chronic - absent
Comparison of Acute and Chronic Leukemia: Based on Clinical and
Lab Manifestation
anemia
acute - present
chronic - present
Comparison of Acute and Chronic Leukemia: Based on Clinical and
Lab Manifestation
platelets
acute - low
chronic - normal or increased
Comparison of Acute and Chronic Leukemia: Based on Clinical and
Lab Manifestation
organomegaly
acute - mild
chronic - severe
Comparison of Acute and Chronic Leukemia: Based on Clinical and
Lab Manifestation
subclassification
acute - ANLL and ALL
chronic - CML and CLL
leukemia under Granulocytic or Myelocytic Leukemia
a. Acute Myeloid/Myeloblastic Leukemia
b. Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
c. Promyelocytic Leukemia
d. Myelomonocytic Leukemia
e. Eosinophilic Leukemia
in Granulocytic or Myelocytic Leukemia , all cells are coming from
common myeloid progenitors
leukemia under Lymphocytic/Lymphoid Leukemia
a. Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia
b. Chronic Lymphocytic
Lymphocytic/Lymphoid Leukemia all cells that are affected are those under
common lymphoid progenitors
Monocytic Leukemia affects
monocytes
Plasma Cell Leukemia affects
plasma cells
Mast Cell Leukemia affects
mast cell
