Myeloid Lymphoid Bone Marrow Disorders Flashcards
Increase in number of circulating neutrophils
Neutrophilia
Cytoplasmic findings of neutrophils associated with bacteria infections (3)
- Toxic granulation
- Dohle bodies: rough ER
- Cytoplasmic vacuolation
Extreme leukocytosis resulting in high WBC that simulates leukemia but is due to infection or another underlying disorder.
May resemble chronic myelogenous leukemia
Leukemoid reaction
Malignant clonal neoplasm of multipotent myeloid stem cells characterized by accumulation of myeloblasts in bone marrow and blood
Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Block in differentiation of leukemic stem cells
Acute myeloid leukemia
t (15;17) seen in ____
Treatment by ___
Acute promyelocytic leukemia
Treatment by all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA)
Clinical features of acute myeloid leukemia
Fatigue: anemia
Infection: granulocytopenia
Bleeding: thrombocytopenia
Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) common in ___
acute promyelocytic leukemia with t(15;17)
Infiltration of gums seen in ____
acute myelomonocytic leukemia
Prognosis of AML
Initial:
Long term survival:
60-80% reach initial remission w/ combination chemotherapy BUT relapses common
Long term survival: 1/3 pt age 18-60.
Pt w/ t(15;17) have 80% survival.
Unfavorable cytogenetics have
Positive cytochemical stains for myeloperoxidase
Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Negative cytochemical stain for myeloperoxidase
Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Most (80%) acute lymphoblastic leukemia have precursor B cells that express:
CD19, CD10, TdT
Less common acute lymphoblastic leukemia have precursor T cells that express:
CD7, CD2, TdT
Prognosis for B-ALL w/ hyperdiploidy
Favorable
Prognosis of B-ALL with t(12;21) TEL-AML1
Favorable
Prognosis of B-ALL with t(9;22) BCR-ABL1, 11q23 rearrangements
Unfavorable
Prognosis of B-ALL with hypodiploidy
Unfavorable
Most common childhood tumor
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Clinical presentation of ____:
Fatigue, infections, bleeding
Bone pain, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, CNS symptoms
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by predominately granulocytic differentiation. Increased neutrophils granulocytic precursors (some), basophila, eosinophilia.
Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia
15% of leukemia in adults, rare in children. Onset of 55 y/o.
Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia
Often asymptomatic at diagnosis. Lethargy, fatigue, weight loss. May have splenomegaly.
Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia
