a

ICD-9 codes for other or unspecified myeloid leukemias are not shown. Acute biphenotypic leukemia (ICD-O-3 9805) is not included as a myeloid leukemia, because it potentially represents a distinct disease entity and was not included in WHO or FAB classification systems.

b

Eight AML codes and 4 CML codes did not appear in the 2000 registry sample either due to their introduction after January 1, 2000 or their absence among older adults.

c

AML with multilineage dysplasia was introduced as ICD-O-3 code in 2001, listed as a subgroup of AML in the 2002 WHO classification system, and removed in 2008.
