Symptoms include abdominal pain, bone pain, and peptic ulcer which are more prevalent than in other subtypes of acute myeloid leukemia.

Symptoms caused by blood cancer cells infiltration into tissues: Swollen lymph nodes. Joint pain
Both monoblasts and promonocytes stain positive for non-specific esterase (NSE), however NSE may often be negative. Immunophenotypically, M5-AML variably express myeloid (CD13, CD33) and monocytic (CD11b, CD11c) markers. Cells may aberrantly express B-cell marker CD20 and the NK marker CD56. Monoblasts may be positive for CD34.
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a cancer of the myeloid line of blood cells, characterized by the rapid growth of abnormal cells that build up in the bone marrow and blood and interfere with normal blood cell production. [1] Symptoms may include feeling tired, shortness of breath, easy bruising and bleeding, and increased risk of infection. [1]
Signs and symptoms are not mutually exclusive, for example a subjective feeling of fever can be noted as sign by using a thermometer that registers a high reading. [7] Because many symptoms of cancer are gradual in onset and general in nature, cancer screening (also called cancer surveillance) is a key public health priority. This may include ...

Individuals with CBL-MZ commonly present with: B-cell blood counts that are extremely high (>4.0x10 9; range 3.0x10 9 /L to 37.1x10 9 /L);, [6] represent a large percentage of cases that would otherwise be designated as non-CLL/SLL MLB; [2] often have an IgM monoclonal gammopathy, i.e. high blood levels of a monoclonal IgM antibody; and in ...
