“…3 In our practice, we do not adopt a 10% or higher cutoff of MPO expression by flow cytometry, as suggested in the recent paper mentioned in your letter. 4 Rather, we comprehensively analyze the immunophenotypic deviations in conjunction with MPO expression when determining the extent of myeloid differentiation. In this case, while only 3% of neoplastic blasts express MPO, in conjunction with the other myeloid antigen expression, including CD13, CD15, CD33 and CD117, there is sufficient myeloid differentiation for a diagnosis of MPAL, T/myeloid.…”
