RSL - Haem - Cancer Flashcards
Multiple myeloma: symptoms
CRAB: Hyper calcemia, Renal failure, Anemia, Bone pain
Myelodysplastic syndromes
Hyperplastic marrow with pancytopenia (megaloblastic hematopoesis). Also no hepatosplenomegaly
3 myeloid Neoplasm types
- Acute myeloid leukemias (stopped at blast)
- Myeloproliferative disorders (terminal diff.)
- Myelodysplastic disorders (disorganized Terminal diff)
ALL - age
ALL - T-cell presentation
Thymic mass in teenager (lymphoma)
ALL - T-cell marker
CD2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ,8 (pre-T cell tumor)
ALL - General markers
TdT+ (pre-T/B cells), CD10 (pre-B cell only)
ALL - Good prognosis translocation
t(12;21)
ALL - B-cell presentation
Leukemia (pre-B-cell tumor)
ALL - t(12;21)
B-Cell, kids, good prognosis
ALL - t(9;22)
B-cell, adults, poor prognosis
ALL - Association
Down syndrome
ALL - Metastasis
Brain and testes
SLL/CLL - age
> 60
SLL/CLL - Cells/markers?
B-cell, CD20+, CD5+ (aberrantly expressed)
SLL/CLL - Histology of peripheral smear?
smudge cells
SLL/CLL - Associations
Hemolytic anemia (if B-cells produce Ab)
SLL/CLL - SLL vs. CLL
CLL = increased peripheral blood lymphocytosis or bone marrow involvement (>4000cells/µL)
SLL/CLL - complications
Transformation to LBCL

mature B-cells
Hairy cell leukemia - Histology?
filamentous hair like projections. Stains with TRAP
Hairy cell leukemia - complications?
Marrow fibrosis –> dry tap
Hairy cell leukemia - extra BM?
splenomegaly, no lymphadenopathy
Hairy cell leukemia - treatment
2-CDA (cladribine)
