Prevalence and clinical implications of germline predisposition gene mutations in patients with acute myeloid leukemia

Abstract Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is one of the most common types of leukemia. With the recent advances in sequencing technology and the growing body of knowledge on the genetics of AML, there is increasing concern about cancer predisposing germline mutations as well as somatic mutations. As fam...
