Overview
Risk factor for mast cell leukemia is systemic mastocytosis, a premalignant condition. Factors involved in malignant transformation of systemic mastocytosis into mast cell leukemia include advanced age, history of weight loss, anemia, thrombocytopenia, hypoalbuminemia, and an excess of bone marrow blasts.[1]
