Abstract: This study was done in patients with acute myelogenus leukemia in Radiation and Isotopes Centre Khartoum, Khartoum state, Sudan, during the period from November 2015 to March 2016. Aim This study aimed to measure the Platelet count and indices in patients with acute myelogenus leukemia. Methods Venous blood (2.5ml) were collected in Ethylene demine Tetra Acetic acid container from patients with acute myelogenus leukemia and measurement by automation technique (Sysmex KX-21N for complete blood count). Results The result showed that the mean of platelets count was (164.82 182.18 X103 /l SD) with p-value (0.004) while the mean of PDW was (10.2 8.8 fL) with p-value (0.08) and the mean of the MPV was (6.1 4.3fL) with p-value (0.00). Conclusion Insignificant change in platelet count and indices of patients with acute myeloid leukemia when correlated with age, duration, and treatment. Also significant difference of mean PL. C and MPV, as well as insignificant mean of PDW was observed when it correlated with healthy control.
