Summary

  • Available morphology alone (that may have been modified by therapy) did

not differentiate acute leukemia from myeloproliferative neoplasm

  • Identification of t(8;9) PCM1‐JAK2 facilitated the diagnosis of a myeloid

neoplasm with eosinophilia and PCM1‐JAK2

  • t(15;17) PML‐RARA prompted diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia

(APL) despite the absence of classic morphology (and absence of initial peripheral blood smear for review)

  • Unclear whether APL represented clonal evolution of the “chronic”

myeloid neoplasm or whether findings represent a composite neoplasm (either way, most unusual)

  • Both the t(8;9), present in 100% of metaphases, as well as peripheral

blood and marrow eosinophilia, disappeared following brief Rx with ATO (± ATRA), hinting at the possible therapeutic potential of this agent
