Although der(1;7) has been reported as a cytogenetic factor for poor prognosis in t-MDS/AML, our patient showed a good response to chemotherapy and obtained complete remission, although longer observation is required to evaluate the prognosis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Of note was the finding that the percentage of myeloblasts, which may account for only a small fraction of the total marrow elements when the revised FAB criteria are applied, had no bearing on prognosis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

They are organised into groups, and further divided into clinical, etiological or histopathological sub-types.[orpha.net]
The etiology of erythroleukemia remains elusive, but the likelihood that it develops secondary to chemotherapeutic treatment or exposure to mutagenic agents is significant.[academic.oup.com]
However, these abnormalities are not specific for erythroleukemia and can present in other dyserythropoiesis etiologies such as myelodysplastic syndrome. The bone marrow is usually hypercellular and shows major dysplasia in the red cells.[hematologyandoncology.net]
