Objective The purpose of this paper is to understand the advantages and disadvantages of the bone marrow smears and bone marrow biopsy in multiple myeloma diagnosis and efficacy judgment,explicit the value of bone marrow smears and bone marrow biopsy synchronous check in the diagnosis and treatment observation of multiple myeloma.Methods With two step-suction two biopsy specimens assay,obtained specimens of bone marrow smears and bone marrow biopsy,retrospective-ly analysed results of 283 multiple myeloma patients bone marrow smear and biopsy,and made a comparative study on the degree of bone marrow hyperplasia,myeloma cell morphology,the degree of tumor cell infiltration,proliferation pattern,bone marrow stromal pathological changes,and fibrosis cases.Results The degree of proliferation of bone marrow biopsy sections and infiltration of plasma cells was significantly higher than that of bone marrow smears,statistically there was a significant difference (P <0.01).Multiple myeloma diagnostic sensitivity by bone marrow biopsy sections was significantly higher than by the bone marrow smears,the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).Plasma cells in bone marrow biopsy tumor proliferation modes:clusterpiece nodular type 33 cases (11.66%),interstitial-type 86 cases (30.39%),among nodular interstitial type 112 cases (39.58%),diffuse cypriot real 52 cases (18.37%).Plasma cells in bone marrow smears tumor morphology:small mature plasma cell type 77 cases (27.21%),immature plasma cell type 148 cases (52.30%),protoplas-mic cell type 36 cases (12.72%),reticular plasma cell type 22 cases (7.77%).Conclusion Marrow biopsy can accurately reflect the degree of bone marrow hyperplasia,plasma cell tumor proliferation mode and infiltration degree,myelofibrosis sit-uation;bone marrow smears Wright-Giemsa staining,plasma cell tumor morphology was clear,typicalfeatured,and easily i-dentifiable.Bone marrow smear and biopsy synchronous check can improve the sensitivity and accuracy for multiple myeloma diagnosis,which has very important significance for multiple myeloma diagnosis and treatment observation.

Objective To explore the abnormal karyotype characteristics of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)patients and their correlation with clinical prognosis.Methods Analyzed the karyotypes of 281 MDS patients by use of G-banding tech-nique.Results Through analysis of the karyotypes of 281 MDS patients,found that the percentage of abnormal karyotypes was 48.75% (137/281),among 137 patients with abnormal karyotypes,43.07% (59 cases)presented with numerical aber-ration,31.39% (43 cases)with structural aberration,and 25.54% (35 cases)with both numerical and structural abnormali-ties.As for MDS subtypes,the occurrence rate of abnormal karyotype was 63.41% (26/41)in RAEB-2,58.73% (37/63)in RAEB-1,39.2% (49/125)in RCMD,15.38% (2/13)in RAS and 22.58% (7/31)in RA.The rates of abnormal karyotype in RAEB-1 and RAEB-2 were significantly higher than that in RA and RAS(P<0.01),and in RCMD (P <0.05).The fre-quent abnormal karyotypes were as follows:+8,-7/7q-,-20/20q-,complex karyotypes chromosomal translocation,i(17),-Y and +21.The follow-up study of 159 MDS patients indicated that the median survival time was 39 months for 68 patients with normal karyotypes and 21 months for 91 patients with abnormal karyotypes,the former was significantly prolonged than the latter (P < 0.05).As far as the leukemia transition rate was concerned,the patients with aberrant karyotypes (35.5%)were significantly higher than that with normal karyotypes (10.3%)(P < 0.01),among them,the cases with complex karyotypes and-7/7q-more easily transit into leukemia.Conclusion MDS was one kind of clonal hematological ma-lignancy with high heterogeneity.Chromosomal karyotype test plays an important role in the correct diagnosis,typing and prognosis evaluation of MDS.
