hematologic malignancy Flashcards
Cytogenetic markers: CD34
general immature cells (lymphoblast or myeloblast)
Cytogenetic markers: Tdt
immature lymphoblast
Cytogenetic markers: CD19
precursor B cell
Cytogenetic markers: CD22
precursor B cell
Cytogenetic markers: CD3
precursor T cell
Cytogenetic markers: CD7
precursor T cell
B-ALL with t(9;22) BCR-ABL1
Philadelphia Chromosome
More seen in adults than children, worst prognosis of B-ALL sub-types
B-ALL with translocation of 11q23
MLL (mixed lineage leukemia)
Neonates/young infants, poor prognosis
B-ALL with t(12;21) ETV6-RUNX1
Favorable prognosis associated with RUNX1
AML with t(8;21) RUNX1-RUNX1T1
diagnostic of AML
younger patients
Relatively Good prognosis
AML with inv(16) or t(16;16)(p13.1;q22) CBFB-MYH11
diagnostic of AML younger patients. "baso eos" cells myelomonocytic leukemia. Relatively Good prognosis
AML with t(15;17) PML-RARA
Acute Promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cytogenetics are diagnostic
Important to recognize:
- RARA blocks differentiation but can be overcome with all-trans retinoic acid treatment - leads to good prognosis. - Associated with DIC
AML with t(1;22) RBM15-MKL1
Most common in infants with Down syndrome
Megakaryoblastic differentiation
Relatively Good prognosis
AML with 11q23 MLL
Monocytic differentiation
Poor prognosis
therapy-related AML - alkylating agents
2-8 years after treatment, prior MDS stage, complex karyotype with partial loss of chromosome 5 and/or 7
POOR PROGNOSIS
