Bone Marrow aspiration morphology shows suspect ALL-L1, however the immunophenotyping are positive CD 33, CD 34, CD 117, HLA-DR, CD 13 and conclusion is Myeloid Lineage. DNA analysis GATA 1 positive.

Laboratory results Hemoglobin 2.8 g / dL, Hematocrit 7.9%, Leucocytes 4,500 / mm3, Platelets count 10,000 / mm3. Echocardiography result is Small Secunder Atrial Septal Defect. Bone marrow aspiration morphology shows AML M2 , immunophenotyping are positive CD 33, CD 36, CD 34, HLA DR, CD 117, CD 13. DNA analysis GATA 1 positive. She was treated using the same AML-DS Protocol from April, 4th 2017 until May, 27th 2017. Two days after completion of therapy, the patient died of bleeding with platelets 13,000 / mm3.
