Recently, we and other groups reported in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) a strong correlation between cytogenetic rearrangements leading to 17p deletion, a typical form of dysgranulopoiesis combining pseudo-Pelger-Huët hypolobulation and small vacuoles in neutrophils, and p53 mutation. To gain further insight into this "17p-syndrome," we studied 17 cases of AML and MDS with 17p...
