摘要
We report a case of refractory acute myeloid leukemia with DEK-NUP214 rearrangement showing circulating monocytic blasts with abundant green cytoplasmic granules on the Wright-Giemsa stain. The granules were strongly positive for Perls' Prussian blue, consistent with hemosiderin deposits. This previously unreported finding is suggestive of siderophage activity by leukemic blasts, likely associated with monocytic differentiation.
