Abstract
/µl, but their WBC counts were not significantly elevated (<12,000/µl). Most of them were young females with a normal or a high neutrophil alkaline phosphatase score and without immature myeloid cells in PB. These findings suggested that there is a subgroup of CML patients with marked thrombocytosis and without significant leukocytosis, which may be misdiagnosed as ET.
