Abstract excerpt
Most acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) patients express PML-RARA fusion; in rare cases, RARA is rearranged with partner genes other than PML. To date, only 2 patients presenting features similar to APL showing the RARG gene rearrangement have been described. We report an acute myeloid leukemia patient with morphology resembling APL without involvement of the RARA gene. Molecular and fluorescent in situ...
