Peripheral acute leukemia (PAL) is extremely rare. We report on the first case of acute megakaryocytic leukemia presenting with PAL and complex chromosomal abnormalities. At diagnosis, the patient had 10.5-21% marrow blasts and 55-60% peripheral blasts which expressed CD42b and CD61. Two related clones with the karyotype of 48,X,-X,+3,+9,del(9)(q12q31) x 2,+17,i(17)(q10)/ 49,idem, +18 were revealed by conventional cytogenetics, but no AML-1/ETO fusion transcript was detected by RT-PCR assay. The significance of this case is discussed concisely.
外周急性白血病(PAL)极为罕见。我们报告了首例表现为PAL并伴有复杂染色体异常的急性巨核细胞白血病病例。诊断时,患者骨髓原始细胞为10.5 - 21%,外周血原始细胞为55 - 60%,这些原始细胞表达CD42b和CD61。常规细胞遗传学检测发现两个相关克隆,核型分别为48,X,-X,+3,+9,del(9)(q12q31)×2,+17,i(17)(q10)/49,idem,+18,但逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)检测未发现AML-1/ETO融合转录本。本文简要讨论了该病例的意义。
