Its presence in AML‐MRC was associated with older age, a previous history of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms (MDS/MPN), leukocytosis, presence of micromegakaryocytes in bone marrow, lower number of blasts in bone marrow, myelomonocytic/monocytic morphological features and normal karyotype. ASXL1 mutation was not observed in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome‐related cytogenetic abnormalities or TP53 mutations. This evidence concerns the gene TP53 and acute myeloid leukemia.
