Haematolymphoid Tumours (WHO Classification, 5th ed.)

editContent Update To WHO 5th Edition Classification Is In Process; Content Below is Based on WHO 4th Edition Classification
This page was converted to the new template on 2023-12-07. The original page can be found at HAEM4:Acute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia (AMKL).

(General Instructions – The main focus of these pages is the clinically significant genetic alterations in each disease type.

Definition / Description of Disease

Acute megakaryoblastic leukemia is a myeloid disease defined by ≥20% blasts in the peripheral blood or bone marrow, of which ≥50% are of megakaryocyte lineage. In the 2016 revision to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification system, acute megakaryoblastic leukemia is a distinct entity within the section of HAEM4:Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), Not Otherwise Specified[1][2]. 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).

AMKL in an individual with Down syndrome should be classified as a different entity, specifically HAEM5:Myeloid proliferations associated with Down syndrome[2].

AMKL associated with t(1;22)(p13.3;q13.1), or inv(3)(q21.3q26.2)/t(3;3)(q21.3;q26.2) should be classified as a different entity, specifically HAEM4:Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with Recurrent Genetic Abnormalities: HAEM5:Acute myeloid leukaemia with RBM15::MRTFA fusion or HAEM5:Acute myeloid leukaemia with MECOM rearrangement[2].

Synonyms / Terminology

French-American-British (FAB) classification M7[2].

Epidemiology / Prevalence

AMKL comprises between 4% and 15% of newly diagnosed pediatric acute myeloid leukemia patients[3].

The content below was from the old template. Please incorporate above.
  • Common manifestations include cytopenias (often thrombocytopenia)[2].
  • An association between acute megakaryoblastic leukemia and mediastrinal germ cell tumors has been described[4].

Sites of Involvement

Bone marrow.

Morphologic Features

  • Megakaryoblasts are usually medium-sized to large cells with basophilic cytoplasm and a high nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio.
  • Nuclei are round, slightly irregular or indented with finely reticular chromatin and 1 - 3 nucleoli.
  • Bone marrow myelofibrosis is common.

Immunophenotype

Cytochemistry

  • Megakaryoblasts are typically negative for myeloperoxidase (MPO) and stain negatively with Sudan black B.
  • Variable reactivity to periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining from negative to focal or strongly positive.

Immunophenotype including:

  • One or more of the platelet glycoproteins: CD41, CD61, and CD42b
  • Myeloid-associated markers may be positive: CD13, CD33
  • CD34, CD45, and HLA-DR are often negative, especially in children
