Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: In 83 patients with cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML), those with NPM1 and wild-type FLT3 (FLT3-wt) mutation and their poor prognostic combination had distinctive flow cytometric findings: CN-AML with a mutation of NPM1 (NPMI-Mt) were CD34(-), CD14(-), and CD2pos and CD4; those with FLT3-internal tandem duplications (ITD) were CD56pos, those with NPM1-Mt and FLT3-wt were CD34(-)...
