We identified different phenotypic subsets among 62 cases of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in blast crisis (BC) (26% B-lymphoblastic, and 74% various myeloblastic subsets) on bone marrow trephines and correlated the blast-phenotype with cytogenetics. Five of myeloid-BC had an associated 3q26 abnormality and two of these showed a megakaryoblastic-phenotype. While myeloid-BC was associated with additional copies of Philadelphia (Ph) (29%) (p=0.08), numerical abnormalities (51%) (p=0.007), trisomy-8 (29%) (p=0.08) and 17p-loss (22%), none of lymphoid-BC showed these abnormalities. Among myeloid-BC, CD34-negative cases were more often associated with trisomy-8, 17p-loss and numerical abnormalities, and the CD117-negative subset with additional copies of Ph (p<0.05).
