Haemophagocytic blasts are described in AML and frequently associated with anomalies of chromosome band 8p11 including t(8;16)(p11;p13) KAT6A::CREBBP, inv(8)(p11q13) KAT6A::NCOA2, t(8;22)(p11;q13) KAT6A::EP300, or t(3;8;17)(q27;p11;q12), or to t(16;21)(p11;q22) with FUS::ERG fusion gene. Here, KAT6A is linked to acute myeloid leukemia.
