Important Note
MPAL is uncommon (2-3% of acute leukaemia). Flow cytometry provides initial evidence of MPAL. However conclusions may subsequently be modified (e.g. by results of immunohistochemistry, cytogenetics, or genetics). It is important that the provisional nature of flow cytometry assignment of MPAL is acknowledged.
| Types and frequency MPAL mixed-phenotype forms | |
|---|---|
| MPAL with features of Myeloid and B-lineage (MPAL M/B) | This is the most common MPAL (more than 50% of MPAL cases). |
| MPAL with features of Myeloid and T-lineage (MPAL M/T) | The second most frequent form (over one third of MPAL cases). |
| MPAL with combinations: MPAL B/T (rare) or B/T/M (very rare) | These forms are infrequent (around 10% of MPAL cases) |
| MPAL with defining molecular features | Following further analysis cases may be assigned additionally as: MPAL with t(9;22) (q34.1;q11.2); BCR-ABL1; MPAL with t(v;11q23.3); with KMT2A re-arrangement |
