Acute erythroleukemia is a relatively rare form of acute myelogenous leukemia. In the present study we analysed ten cases of acute erythroleukemia. All the patients were anemic and nine were thrombocytopenic at the time of diagnosis. Peripheral blood showed blasts in nine cases. Dyserythropoiesis was seen in all the cases whereas dysmegakaryopoiesis was seen in five cases. Dysplasia in the granulocytic series was seen in five cases. Based on the overall features this study concludes that acute erythroleukemia is associated with dysplasia of variable degree.
