Preserved Fulltext
Acute leukemia is characterized by the presence of 20% or more blasts in peripheral blood and/or bone marrow biopsy. It includes both AML & Acute ALL. However the diagnosis of AML can also be made when the blast percentage in peripheral blood or bone marrow is < 20 % if there is an associated t (8;21), inv ( 16 ), or t (16;16) chromosomal abnormality or PML-RAR fusion gene [1] [2] [3] . Tumor lysis syndrome is the most common disease related emergency in patients with leukemia & requires immediate management.
