Overview

Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of chronic myelogenous leukemia in CBC include: thrombocytosis and/or marked leukocytosis (median of 100,000/µL) with a left shift, blasts usually number <2%, absolute basophilia is nearly universal, absolute eosinophilia, monocytosis and normal or elevated platelet count; thrombocytopenia suggests an alternative diagnosis or the presence of advanced stage. elevated uric acid levels and elevated histamine levels due to basophilia are other laboratory findings.[1]
