Diagnostic application of flow cytometric characteristics of CD34+ cells in low-grade myelodysplastic syndromes
31 Mar 2006
Abstract excerpt
The diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) without an increase in blasts and ringed sideroblasts (low-grade MDS without ringed sideroblasts [LGw/oRS]) may be problematic because dysplastic features are not specific to MDS and approximately 50% of patients with LGw/oRS lack chromosomal aberrations. Here, we report the usefulness of flow cytometric characteristics of CD34(+) cells for LGw/oRS diagnosis. Bone...
