Acute myeloid leukemia
MONDO:0018874Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a group of neoplasms arising from precursor cells committed to the myeloid cell-line differentiation. All of them are characterized by clonal expansion of myeloid blasts. AML manifests by fever, pallor, anemia, hemorrhages and recurrent infections.
Also known as: AML, AML - acute myeloid leukaemia, AML - acute myeloid leukemia, ANLL, acute Nonlymphocytic leukaemia, acute Nonlymphocytic leukemia, acute granulocytic leukaemia, acute granulocytic leukemia
