One hundred and twenty-five cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) were reviewed for the presence of Auer rods by two peroxidase methods. The percentage of Auer rods recognized by Wright-Giemsa (WG) staining was 20.8% but three times higher by peroxidase staining techniques using either benzidine bas
The prognostic significance of Auer rods in predicting response rate and remission duration was investigated in 257 patients of the two West German acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) studies BFM-78 and -83. Auer rods were found in 129 children (50%) in the initial bone marrow smear. The incidence was
