==Cancer Sub-Classification / Subtype==

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) without maturation

==Definition / Description of Disease==

This is a distinct entity in the World Health Organization (WHO) classification system within the section of [[Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), Not Otherwise Specified]]<ref name=":0">Arber DA, et al., (2017). Acute myeloid leukaemia with recurrent genetic abnormalities, in World Health Organization Classification of Tumours of Haematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues, Revised 4th edition. Swerdlow SH, Campo E, Harris NL, Jaffe ES, Pileri SA, Stein H, Thiele J, Arber DA, Hasserjian RP, Le Beau MM, Orazi A, and Siebert R, Editors. IARC Press: Lyon, France, p157-158.</ref>. This entity does ''not'' meet the criteria for inclusion in any of the other AML groups (i.e. AML with Recurrent Genetic Abnormalities, AML with Myelodysplasia-Related Changes, or Therapy-Related Myeloid Neoplasms). There is currently no known recurrent chromosomal abnormality associated with this entity<ref name=":0" />.

==Synonyms / Terminology==

American-British (FAB) classification M1 [1].

==Epidemiology / Prevalence==

Accounts for 5-10% of AML, occurring mostly in adults (median age of ~46 years)<ref name=":0" />.

==Clinical Features==

Usually presents with symptoms of bone marrow failure, including anemia, thrombocytopenia and neutropenia. There is also variability in the white blood cell and blast counts, which can include leukocytosis with markedly increased blasts<ref name=":0" />.

==Sites of Involvement==

Bone marrow

==Morphologic Features==

This AML subtype is characterized by the presence in the bone marrow of a high percentage of myeloid blasts without significant evidence of maturation; specifically, <10% of the nucleated bone marrow cells represent maturing cells of the granulocytic lineage<ref name=":0" />. Cases are typically markedly hypercellular (range also includes normocellular and hypocellular) and can involve myeloblasts with azurophilic granules and/or Auer rods, while other cases present with cells resembling lymphoblasts that lack azurophilic granules<ref name=":0" />.

==Immunophenotype==

The characteristic immunophenotype associated with this entity is listed in the table below. The myeloid nature of the blasts includes an immunophenotype positive for MPO or SBB in ≥3% of the blasts and/or the presence of Auer rods, as well as typically positivity for one or more myeloid-associated antigens<ref name=":0" />.

==Epigenomics (Methylation)==

Not applicable

==Genes and Main Pathways Involved==

Unknown

==Diagnostic Testing Methods==

Histology and immunophenotype

==Clinical Significance (Diagnosis, Prognosis and Therapeutic Implications)==

The differential diagnosis includes 1) Lymphoblastic Leukemia in the presence of blast cells lacking granules or in cases with a low percentage of MPO-positive blasts and 2) AML with Maturation in cases with a higher percentage of MPO-positive blasts<ref name=":0" />.

==Familial Forms==

No familial forms currently known.
