page 1
acute myeloid leukemia
myeloid leukemia that is characterized by the rapid growth of abnormal white blood cells that accumulate in the bone marrow and interfere with the production of normal blood cells
acute promyelocytic leukemia
acute myeloid leukemia characterized by accumulation of promyelocytes in the bone marrow and by a translocation between chromosomes 15 and 17
myeloid sarcoma
solid tumor composed of immature white blood cells called myeloblasts.
acute erythroid leukemia
rare form of acute myeloid leukemia (less than 5% of AML cases) where the myeloproliferation is of erythroblastic precursors.
acute monocytic leukemia
Human disease
mast cell leukemia
rare leukemia (blood cancer) involving mast cells
acute megakaryoblastic leukemia
leukemia that derives from blood-forming tissue in which megakaryocytes proliferate in the bone marrow and circulate in the blood in large numbers
acute biphenotypic leukaemia
uncommon type of leukemia which arises in multipotent progenitor cells which have the ability differentiating into both myeloid and lymphoid lineages
Acute myeloblastic leukemia without maturation
acute myeloid leukemia (AML) characterized by blasts without evidence of maturation to more mature neutrophils (WHO, 2001)
acute myelomonocytic leukemia
acute leukemia characterized by the proliferation of both neutrophil and monocyte precursors
Acute myeloblastic leukemia with maturation
acute myeloid leukemia (AML) characterized by blasts with evidence of maturation to more mature neutrophils (WHO, 2001)
