In this case report, a rare presentation of familial AML is presented in three monozygotic triplets. Two were 10 months old, and the other one was 16 months old at p...

Included among the names for this condition are acute myelogenous leukemia, acute myelocytic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, acute myeloblastic leukemia, acute granulocytic...
متن کاملCHRONIC MYELOID LEUKEMIA Allogeneic transplantation for chronic myelogenous leukemia
Over the last quarter century investigators have demonstrated that allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) can cure chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). Early reports suggested the efficacy of related donor transplant after a myeloablative preparative regimen containing total body irradiation (TBI) [1 /3]. Subsequent studies have identified variables which improve outcome such as tra...
متن کاملAcute Myelogenous Leukemia
Documented central nervous system (CNS) involvement in acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), unlike acute lymphocytic leukemia, is relatively uncommon [1 , 2] . CNS involvement in AML is reported to occur in 6%-17% of cases [1-4]. It is expected that improvements in therapy with increased frequency of remission and prolonged survival will lead to further increases in clinical CNS involvement in AML...
