Abstract

A case of the myeloblastoma involving brain and spinal cord in a patient with acute myelomonocytic leukemia is reported. Numerous mitoses within the tumor provide an evidence for local cell proliferation in the neoplasm. Surgery combined with radiotherapy is suggested as the most efficient modality of the treatment.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disease with approximately 20,000 cases per year in the United States. AML also accounts for 15-20% of all childhood acute leukemias, while it is responsible for more than half of the leukemic deaths in these patients. Here is the latest research on this disease.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.
