→ May have symptoms of anemia and rapid weight loss
- CHRONIC MYELOLOGENOUS LEUKEMIA (CML)
→ May complain of malaise (night sweats)
- CHRONIC MYELOLOGENOUS LEUKEMIA (CML)
due to high wbc/granulocyte turn over (1 hour instead of <20 days)
- CHRONIC MYELOLOGENOUS LEUKEMIA (CML)
→ Spleen enlarges progressively resulting to high fever and night sweats (Splenomegaly)
- CHRONIC MYELOLOGENOUS LEUKEMIA (CML)
due to high fever and night sweats
- CHRONIC MYELOLOGENOUS LEUKEMIA (CML)

abnormal type of chromosome present in px w/ CML
Ph chromosome (Philadelphia)
Cause: mutation of both ABL-1 gene of Ch 9 and BCR gene of Ch 22
Ph chromosome (Philadelphia)
abnormal chromosome containing the abnormal gene
Ph chromosome (Philadelphia)
: abnormal gene
BCR-ABL gene
Etiolgy:
from Ch 9 and Ch 22 abnormalities
→ Prognosis: TKl targets BCR-ABL and results in long term remissions.
- CHRONIC MYELOLOGENOUS LEUKEMIA (CML)
Dependent of response to TKI (cytokine supressed targeting BCR-ABL gene; appearance causes long-term remission of CML)
- CHRONIC MYELOLOGENOUS LEUKEMIA (CML)
in chemotherapy, TKI is supressed to supress the mutation on Ch 9 and Ch 22
