Defect in?
Associated with?
What makes this disease worse?
White cells/PMN with large granules
CHS1 (LYST) gene and lysozyme function; microtubule issues
Occulocutaneous albinism, neuropathy, plt dysfunction
EBV common to start accelerated phase
MYH9 diseases has what findings?
Inheritance pattern?
Finding in WBCs?
Large plts, thrombocytopenia, hearing loss, cataracts, and glomerulonpehritis
Auto dom
Dohle bodies: small purple cytoplasmic inclusions; Normal neutorphil function
What is Alder Reilly anomaly?
What do you seein WBCs/special stain?
Neutrophil function?
Auto recessive disease; lysosomal enzyme don’t break down muopolysacchardies
Dense metachromatic azurophilic granules in ALL WBCs; PAS+
Normal neutrophil function
What is Pelger-Huet anomaly/micro finding?
Clinical significance?
Hypolobated neutrophil; Auto dom disorder lamin B receptor
No significance
DDx: Peudo Pelger Huet cells in MDS (only some hypolobated)
Gaucher disease machophages look like?
Issues with?
Tissue paper (folded blue cytoplasm)
Glucorerebroside accumulation and glucocerbrosidase deficency
Niemann-Pick macrophage morphology?
Issue with?
Foamy, vacuolated cytoplasm
Sphringomyelin accumulation/ sphingomyelinase deficiency
Atypical lymphocytes associated with?
Cell type?
Morphology?
LGL’s are what kind of cell?
NK/T LGL leukemia (months and cell count)?
Infection, EBV, HIV, etc
CD8+ T-cells reacting to infected B-cells
Cytoplasm with edge that is darker and scallops RBCs
LDL: Cyto T and NK with granules (CD3, CD16, CD56+)
>6 months, >2000 cells, cytopenias
Hematogones look like?
Flow markers?
How to seperate from B ALL?
Blasts
Cd20, CD10, CD34, TdT+
B ALL has CD10-
Myeloblasts have?
Monoblasts have?
Promyelocyte features?
Auer rods (primary granules fused); or granuloles
Mono: Very fine granules, blue gray cytoplasm
Single or bilobed nuclei, hypo or hyper granular cyto with Auer rods
ALL has what PAS staining pattern?
AML staining with Sudan black?
AML nonspecific esterates/ if 2 colors?
Lymphoblasts: BLOCK POSITIVITY
Myeloid cells: Weak
Sudan black: Myeloid marker marks lipid
Alpha napthy acetate, alpha napthyl butyrate–NSE
IF 2 COLORS THEN MYELOMONOCYTIC LEUKEMIA
Acute myelomonocytic leukemia definition?
Flow?
What classic clinical finding?
>20% blasts (promonocytes count); >20% neutorphils and myeloid precursor, >20% monocytes and promonocytes
Gingival hyperplasia
CD4 +, CD 16+
Acute monoblastic and monocytic leukemia definition?
>80% monocytic cells
M5a: 80% >Monocytic cells and monoblasts
M6b: <80% monocytic cells are monoblasts
Pure erythroid leukemia definition, cytoplasmic finding?
Postive stains?
Erytholeukemia requirements?
>80% erythroid, >30% erythroblasts, blue cytoplasm with possible vacuoles
E-cadherin, glyophorin, CD71
Trick question:
Now called AML with MDS related changes (>20% BLASTS); or MDS with Excessive blsts (<20% blasts)
Acute megakaryoblastic leukemia definition?
Genes excluded?
Markers?
>20% blasts; 50% of blasts must be megakaryoblasts!; BM fibrosis common
t(1;22), inv (3), t(3;3); and Downs syndrome related
EM (platelet preroxidase), CD41, CD61, CD42 +
Good prognosis AML recurrent genetics (3 of them)?
t(15;17), t(8;21); inv16
APL has what transolation/genes, cyto findings?

Tx?
t(15;17)(q22;q12) PML-RARA; see Auer Rods
>20% blasts
DIC
Myeloid +, CD34-, HLA-DR -, CD15-; DO NOT DX ON FLOW ONLY!
All trans retinooic acid and conventional chemo
APL ATRA resistant translocations?
Is there a microglandular variant of APL, what to lok for?
t(5;17)(q23;q12); 5-nucleophosmin gene
t(11;17)(q13;q21): 11 nculear matrix associated
t(11;17)(q23;q21); ZBTB16 (PLZF)
YES: bilobed BUTTERFLY CELLS!; same ATRA response
