Note: Severe neutropenia per se (up to Grade 4) should be accepted if it is likely to be related to the AML. However, the severe neutropenia may be due to the recently administered chemotherapy (e.g. cytarabin). It may be prudent to perform a new bone marrow examination. In case the marrow is hypoplastic (due to cytarabin) the screening should be postponed and G-CSF should be administered for a short period and then the patient should be re-evaluated. In case the bone marrow is not hypoplastic but rather infiltrated with AML cells the patient can be screened.
