β¦ Synopsis
Discussion: Our study denotes mean peroxidase value is negative in AML. Interestingly, the FAB subtypes of AML have different patterns of MPXI. All M4 and M5 cases have negative value which may be related to monocytoid cells while 75% of M3 cases have high MPXI value which may be related to high myeloperoxidase enzyme in promyelocytes. Conclusion: It is concluded that mean MPXI is negative in AML, it is almost always negative in AML M4 and M5. MPXI level may help to differentiate subtypes of AML.
