Additional chromosome abnormalities in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia treated with all-trans retinoic acid and chemotherapy [PDF]
Background Acute promyelocytic leukemia is a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia characterized by the t(15;17). The incidence and prognostic significance of additional chromosomal abnormalities in acute promyelocytic leukemia is still a controversial ...

Multiple acute ischemic strokes as the onset manifestation of acute promyelocytic leukemia
Acute promyelocytic leukemia often manifests with hemorrhagic diathesis, thrombotic events being much rarer. This is the case of a 59-year-old patient with thrombotic cerebro-vascular complications as the onset manifestation of acute promyelocytic ...

Primary Extramedullary Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia Presenting as Cauda Equina Syndrome: A Rare Case Report and Diagnostic Challenge. [PDF]
ABSTRACT APL presenting as an extramedullary mass is exceedingly rare. Here, we describe extramedullary APL causing cauda equina syndrome, underscoring the diagnostic challenges associated with an atypical presentation, highlighting the complexity of distinguishing extramedullary APL from other conditions, and discussing the stepwise approach to ...

Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia
AbstractThe therapeutic approach to the patient with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) currently evolves toward new frontiers. This is particularly apparent from the entree of high-throughput diagnostic technologies and the identification of prognostic and therapeutic targets, the introduction of therapies in genetically defined subgroups of AML, as well as
