Cases of myeloid surface antigen-negative acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are rare. We describe the morphological, cytochemical, immunologic, and cytogenetic features of two patients with AML with maturation (FAB M2) and the phenotype MPO+, CD13 (-), CD33(-), CD56(+). Cytogenetic studies demonstrated t(8;21)(q22;q22). These findings suggest an association between the lack of CD13 and CD33 in myeloperoxidase-positive AML and the presence of t(8;21).
髓系表面抗原阴性的急性髓系白血病(AML)病例罕见。我们描述了两例具有成熟特征的AML(FAB M2型)患者的形态学、细胞化学、免疫学和细胞遗传学特征,其表型为MPO+、CD13(-)、CD33(-)、CD56(+)。细胞遗传学研究显示存在t(8;21)(q22;q22)。这些发现提示髓过氧化物酶阳性的AML中CD13和CD33缺失与t(8;21)的存在之间存在关联。
