Test results at time of diagnosis

Diagnostic testTissue typeFindings
Flow cytometry Peripheral blood Population of immature cells (comprising ∼84% of viable cells): Positive for CD45 (dim), CD34, CD117, CD33, CD7, CD4 (subset dim), CD56 (small subset), CD123 (dim), CD36, CD38, CD41 (small subset with weak expression), CD61 (small subset with weak expression), CD71. Negative for myeloperoxidase, HLA-DR, CD13, CD15, CD16, CD14, CD64, CD65, CD11b, sCD3, CD2, CD5, CD8, CD10, CD19, and CD20. 
FISH Peripheral blood Positive for 3 copies of RUNX1 in 88% of examined cells. Negative for RUNX1T1/RUNX1, KMT2A, PML/RARA or CBFB rearrangements, monosomy 5, monosomy 7, and trisomy 8. 
Cytogenetics Peripheral blood 47,XY, + 21[20] 
Lymphocytes 46,XY[8] 
Skin fibroblasts 46,XY[50] 
NGS panel Peripheral blood GATA1 (NM_002049) c.136_137insCCTCCACTGCCCCGAG (p.T52Lfs*21): 80.1% variant allele frequency. Copy number analysis: gain of RUNX1, ERG, U2AF1 (on 21q).
