Atypical Presentation of Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia
Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is a clonal myeloproliferative disorder characterized by the presence of the Philadelphia chromosome, t(9;22), which is a constitutively active tyrosine kinase that causes excessive proliferation and differentiation of myeloid cells in the bone marrow. Most patients are either asymptomatic or present with fatigue, abdominal fullness, and splenomegaly. This is ...
متن کاملSpecific cutaneous involvement in a child with monoblastic leukemia
A 13-year-old boy, admitted with hemorrhagic syndrome and fever. Physical exam showed dermo-hypodermic nodular lesion on the whole body (figure 1), facial edema (figure 2), splenomegaly at 2 cm and angulo mandibular lymph node of 2cm. Count blood cells found white blood cell at 1360/mm3 with 94% of blasts, anemia at 8.3 g/dl and thrombocytopenia at 38000/mm3. Morphological examination of bone m...
متن کاملFlow Cytometry in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia Blast Crisis
Background: Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative disorder due to BCR-ABL1 translocation. Patients showing transformation into blast crisis (BC) have poorer treatment response and prognosis. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in the department of Pathology, Maulana Azad Medical College, New Delhi, India, over a time period of 5 years (2014-2019) to evaluate the ...
متن کاملFunction of Neutrophils in Different Phases of Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia
In chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), the mature granulocytes originate from a stem cell line harboring an abnormal chromosome, therefore it is possible that metabolic-functional abnormalities occur in the morphologically mature cells. In the present study, the phagocytic activity including intracellular killing, nitro blue tetrazolium (NBT) reduction, and phagocytosis were studied in 37 CML p...
متن کاملTh1 and Th2 Cytokine Gene Polymorphism in Iranian Patients with Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia
Background:It has been hypothesized that genetic factors other than histocompatibility disparity may play a role in predisposition to developing Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML). In this regard, Th1 and Th2 cytokines and their gene polymorphism seems to be important. Overall expression and secretion of cytokines is dependent, at least in part, on genetic polymorphism (nucleotide variations) w...
