Abstract
Summary.: Eighteen out of 140 cases of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) have presented a syndrome of disseminated intravascular coagulation; 17 of them had obviously similar morphological features which clearly defined them as so‐called acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL). There is a close relationship between the morphology of the blast cells and the occurrence of a syndrome of disseminated intravascular coagulation.Keywords
