title: Ultrastructural studies on AMML and ocular granulocytic sarcoma.
abstract: The ultrastructural analysis of the leukemic cells in twelve cases with AMML was considered a valuable tool in the diagnosis of this type of leukemia. Furthermore intracytoplasmic structure resembling virus like particles were observed in three bone marrow and one eye sample of the patients studied. The role of C-type RNA viruses in the etiology of leukemia was discussed.
