    Hematology Pathology - 004) Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) (Illustrations - Key)

    Uploaded by

    Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) results from increased myeloblasts in the bone marrow that crowd out normal hematopoiesis. This leads to decreased red blood cells, platelets, and normal white blood cells. Increased myeloblasts also expand into the bone marrow, causing bone pain, and can spread to the blood and tissues, causing organ dysfunction. AML is diagnosed through blood tests showing low blood counts and elevated myeloblasts, as well as bone marrow biopsy demonstrating over 20% myeloblasts. Treatment involves chemotherapy to induce remission by promoting myeloblast differentiation into mature cells.
