Overview
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of mast cell leukemia include abnormal complete blood count, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry.[1][2][3]
Mast cell leukemia laboratory findings
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of mast cell leukemia include abnormal complete blood count, biochemistry, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry.[1]
Complete Blood Count
On complete blood count, characteristic findings of mast cell leukemia include:[1][2]
- Bicytopenia
- Anemia
- Thrombocytopenia
- Leukopenia
- Neutropenia
Biochemistry
Total serum tryptase level is elevated in mast cell leukemia.[3]
Immunohistochemistry
On immunohistochemistry, characteristic findings of mast cell leukemia include:[1][2]
- Leukemic mast cells strongly express:
- Abnormal mast cells ususally express:[2]
- Other cell surface markers expressed by mast cells are:[2]
Flow Cytometry
Malignant mast cells overexpress the anti-apoptosis gene, B-cell lymphoma 2.[3]
