The story of 1 day in the life of a #hematopathologist… I’m too exhausted to make a fancy educational thread but here are some amazing 🔬 pics for your viewing pleasure. I diagnosed all cases in one day 🤯 only at @MDAndersonNews Happy almost weekend people 🥂 #hemepath 🧵 1/n
Myeloproliferative neoplasm w/ concurrent BCR::ABL1 and JAK2 V617F ..the megekaryocyte morphology is clue to something beyond CML #mpnsm#PathOutPic 2/

WT1 mutations are present in ~7% of de novo AML, are typically Lof mutation involving exons 7-9 of the gene. They frequently (~15%) co-occur w/ NPM1mut & have detrimental impact in this setting, shown by @AkEisfeld and colleagues in bit.ly/3eWQtXw@LeukemiaJnl
We studies a cohort of de novo NPM1-mut AML. 7% had concurrent WT1 mutations at baseline. 22% (15/67) relapsed; 4 (27%) with newly acquired Lof WT1-mut. Illustrated by @furudateken
