Acute Myeloid Leukemia with t(8;21)(q22;q22); RUNX1-RUNX1T1
An acute myeloid leukemia (AML) showing maturation in the neutrophil lineage. The bone marrow and the peripheral blood show large myeloblasts with abundant basophilic cytoplasm, often containing azurophilic granules. This type of AML is associated with good response to chemotherapy and high complete remission rate. (NCI Thesaurus/WHO)
