Atypical chronic myeloid leukemia BCR/ABL1 negative is a rare disease. The prognosis is unfavorable; patients have a high risk of transformation in acute myeloid leukemia. Transplantation of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cells should therefore be considered in younger patients without significant associated illnesses for which a suitable donor has been found early in the course of disease. We use paliative treatment procedures for patients who are unsuitable for transplantation.
