Neoplastic disorders part 2 Flashcards
What conditions are included in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms?
- Chronic myelogenous Leukemia
- Polycythemia Vera
- Primary myelofibrosis
- Essential Thrombocytosis/Thrombocythemia
*an MPN that originates in an abnormal pluripotent bone marrow stem cell
*and is consistently associated with the BCR-ABL 1 fusion gene located in the Philadelphia chromosome
Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML)
reciprocal translocation of DNA between chromosomes 9 and 22 (t9q:22q)
Philadelphia chromosome
*an absolute increase in red cell mass, leukocytosis, and thrombocytosis. *Panhyperplasia of the bone marrow
*Pancytosis in peripheral blood
Polycythemia vera
Polycythemia vera is characterized by what mutation?
JAK2 V617F
both are increased in PV
Serum and urine Erythropoietin
systemic bone marrow fibrosis and extramedullary hematopoiesis
Primary fibrosis
caused by infiltrative disorders, including malignancies and infections, or exposure to chemical toxins or
Secondary myelofibrosis
__________ - replaced by abnormal cells
__________ - fibrotic tissue
- myelopthisic
- myelofibrosis
a clonal myeloproliferative disorder primarily affecting the megakaryocytic lineage with the principal manifestation of sustained thrombocytosis
Essential thrombocythemia
the ‘millionaires’
Essential thrombocythemia
*disorders in which apoptosis predominates, hematopoiesis is ineffective, and cytopenias occur
*chronic myelomonocyticleukemia (CMML),
*atypical chronic myeloid leukemia (aCML),
Myelodysplastic syndromes
Dysgranulopoiesis
- Pseudo Pelger Huet
Dysmegakaryocytopoiesis
giant hypogranular platelets
cytochemicals in order to identify a particular or differentiate leukemias
cytochemistry
To differentiate a myelogenous or monocytic leukemia from acute lymphocytic leukemia
Myeloperoxidase Reaction
___________ is present in the primary azurophilic granules of neutrophil, eosinophil and monocyte
Peroxidase
interpretations for myeloperoxidase reaction
Red brown peroxidase:
Auer rods:
Monocytes:
Lymphoblast and lymphoid cells:
– present in neutrophil and eosinophil
- strongly positive
- negative to diffusely +
- negative
interpretations for myeloperoxidase reaction
Acute leukemia infection & myelodysplasia:
Basophils:
Peroxidase:
- show negative stain
- increase in CML
- may stain positive in granulocytic leukemia
- may show results similar to those of sudan black B
