We report the case of a 39-year-old woman with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with monocytic differentiation showing hemophagocytosis by leukemic blasts. This phenomenon is known to be associated with certain chromosomal changes, including t(8;16), der(8), inv(8), and t(16;21); however, in this case, the patient had a normal female karyotype. To our knowledge, this is the first published case of normal karyotype AML with hemophagocytosis by leukemic blasts.
我们报告了一例39岁患有急性髓系白血病(AML)伴单核细胞分化的女性病例,其白血病原始细胞表现出噬血细胞现象。已知这种现象与某些染色体变化有关,包括t(8;16)、der(8)、inv(8)和t(16;21);然而,在该病例中,患者的核型为正常女性核型。据我们所知,这是首例发表的具有白血病原始细胞噬血细胞现象的核型正常的AML病例。
