Haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in association with granular lymphocyte proliferative disorders in early childhood: characteristic bone marrow morphology.

abstract：:Hypercalcaemia complicating acute myelogenous leukaemia is a rare but well-recognized phenomenon. In most cases the pathogenetic mechanism causing the hypercalcaemia remains poorly understood. We recently studied in detail two patients with acute myelogenous leukaemia who developed hypercalcaemia during the course of ...
