definition: acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) results from acquired (not inherited) genetic damage to the DNA of developing cells in the bone marrow. The effects are: 1) the uncontrolled, exaggerated growth and accumulation of cells called "leukemic blasts" which fail to function as normal blood cells and 2) the blockade of the production of normal marrow cells, leading to a deficiency of red cells (anemia), and platelets (thrombocytopenia) and normal white cells (especially neutrophils, i.e. neutropenia) in the blood.

definition: la leucemia mieloide aguda deriva de una alteración genética congénita del ADN al producir células en la médula ósea. Las consecuencias son: 1) producción y acumulación incontrolada y excesiva de élulas denominadas blastos leucémicos, que no abtienen el mismo rendimiento que las células sanguíneas normales y 2) inactividad en la producción de células medulares, que conlleva a deficiencia de hematíes (anemia), de plaquetas (trombocitopenia) y de leucocitos, sobre todo de neutrófilos (neutropenia).

note: In some texts, the English acronym AML is used instead of the Spanish AML, but this is mostly in poor quality translations of English booklets offered by cancer sites on the net (Cancerbucup or CancerNet). (en)
