What are the typical lab findings in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia?
|
Thrombocytosis
<10% blasts in PB >100,000 WBC/L Very high M:E (10:1-50:1) |
|
Thrombocytopenia, NRBC, >20% basophils and an increase in promyelocytes is consistant with what phase of CML?
|
The accelerated phase
|
|
The translocation of ABL-1(q34) and BCR(q11) results in the formation of this abnormal chromosome found in 90% of patients diagnosed with CML
|
Philadelphia or Ph chromosome.
|
|
An LAP score >100 can indicate what conditions?
|
Leukmoid reaction, Polycythemia Vera
|
|
State the expected lab findings for CIMF
|
tear drop cells, large platelets BM fibrosis, initial increase in WBC and platelets but decreases as disease progresses
|
|
Identify the chromosomal abnormality associated with CML and explain how this finding correlates with prognosis.
|
Ph chromosome(fusion of ABL-1 and BCR)
The protien produced by this chromosome (p210BCR-ABL) does not allow for abnormal cell destrucion leading to an increase in the WBC. |
|
Compare and contrast the usual platelet and red cell counts in AML vs. CML.
|
In AML both are decreased in CML both are increased.
