==Clinical factors== | |||
Clinical are important in the classification of leukemia. | |||
*Hx of [[myelodysplastic syndrome]]? | |||
*Chemotherapy? | |||
*[[Down syndrome]]? | |||
==Algorithms== | |||
There is a nice set of algorithms from D. Arber - that were presented at the 2009 USCAP. | |||
==Leukemia classification== | |||
AML: | |||
#AML. | |||
#AML with recurrent cytogenetic abnormalities. | |||
#AML from MDS. | |||
#AML in the setting of Down syndrome. | |||
ALL: | |||
#B cell. | |||
#B cell with recurrent cytogenetic abnormalities. | |||
#T cell. | |||
===AML with recurrent cytogenetic abnormalities=== | |||

IHC: | |||
*CD34+, CD13+, MPO+ (cytoplasm), CD33+ (weak). | |||
*CD56+, CD117+. | |||
**Usu. assoc. with a bad prognosis. | |||
Flow cytometry: | |||
*CD19+, PAX5+, CD79a +/-. | |||

*Assoc. with myeloid sarcoma. | |||
Microscopic: | |||
*Blast count usu. ~20% (low). | |||
*Eosinophilic granules. | |||
**Used to be classified as "M4" with eosinophilia. | |||
IHC: | |||
*CD2+ -- common. | |||
