Morphological diagnosis of M3 or M3v. Those cases without typical morphology but with PML-RARa rearrangement may also be included;
Genetic diagnosis: t(15;17), PML-RARa rearrangement, monoclonal anti-PML positive. Obviously, the result of these tests may become available after having initiated the treatment based on a tentative morphological diagnosis. The presence of secondary cytogenetic changes associated with t(15;17) is not a reason for exclusion nor do they require a different therapeutic approach;
Written informed consent.

Absence of PML-RARa rearrangement;
