Spanish term

200 B/mcI en SP

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Chemotherapy
This is taken from a medical report on treatment of a patient with t-cell lymphoblastic cancer, after induction to therapy and assessing the response to treatment:

• Dia +8: 200 ***B/mcI en SP **** (buena respuesta).
• Día+ 14: Mielograma en remisión citomorfológica (1% células inmaduras). EMR en MO: 0.18%.
• Día +33: Mielograma en remisión citomorfológica. EMR en MO

It is a Spanish hospital.

Thanks!
Proposed translations (English)

@ Stuart and Aida. Thanks for your help and research! I later discovered the text had been extracted from a pdf file, hence it is quite clearly a typo.
Chema Nieto Castañón Sep 23, 2018:
Perfecto tu enlace último en respuesta, Aida. Cito textualmente:
Respuesta a la inducción: un marcado y rápido descenso de blastos en SP [sangre periférica] (d+8) y/o MO [en médula ósea] (d+15) y RC al final de inducción definen riesgo.
Stuart and Aida Nelson Sep 23, 2018:
Blast cells Continuing with my research I have found out that the problem with this type of cancer, which is a type of leukaemia, is the excessive proliferation of blast cells and the treatment involves trying to reduce their number. In this case, I understand that this section of the report is part of the results after induction to therapy. 200 mcL of blast cells per microliter of peripheral blood were found on the 8th day. See example entry in my answer for comparison: 'Absolute blast count (ABC) >200/μl in PB by day 15 assessed by flow cytometry'
Stuart and Aida Nelson Sep 23, 2018:
@ David @ Chema As recorded in my answer I would then suggest: **200 B/mcL of PB**. The physician would then understand what this is about and doctors love to use abbreviations :). Gracias por la explicación de como se cuantifican los blastos o sea que no se cuantifican en la sangre periferal?
Chema Nieto Castañón Sep 21, 2018:
Blastos Aunque los blastos se cuantifican generalmente en médula, ver por ejemplo aqui:
Se consideró como RFE [respuesta favorable a esteroides] la presencia menor de [1000] blastos/mcL en sangre periférica al día cero del pretratamiento.

Como sugerido por Anne en comentarios, diría que B debe referirse a blastos en el contexto de evaluación de un linfoma no Hodking de células T como el referido.
Stuart and Aida Nelson Sep 21, 2018:
@ Anne - basophils or blast cells This is what I found in the link posted in my answer for basophils:

'Basophils account for less than three percent of your white blood cells. You should have 0 to 300 basophils per microliter of blood'

The question says ' 200 B' so I assumed that because you should have 0 to 300 basophils per per microliter of blood, this refers to basophils.

However, you as a doctor know more :). Are blast cells also measured in this way?
Stuart and Aida Nelson Sep 21, 2018:
@ David - mcI error tipográfico Me costó!! Creo que McI es un error tipográfico para 'mcL' microlitro'. Espero que te ayude.
Stuart and Aida Nelson Sep 21, 2018:
SP @ David Tienes razón tiene que ser sangre periférica = peripheral blood
David Russell (asker) Sep 21, 2018:
Gracias, pero tristemente lo había mirado ya. SP es "sangre periférica".
Stuart and Aida Nelson Sep 21, 2018:
@ David Soy tan buena y te paso uno de mis secretos :) Espero que te ayude. No siempre encuentras todo pero muchas veces ayuda.

basophils per microliter of peripheral blood

B= Basófilo
https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basófilo

McL = microliter (μL) creo que McI es un error tipográfico del original
[mī′krəlē′tər]

a unit of liquid volume equal to one millionth of a liter, or 1 mm3.
https://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/microliter

SP= sangre periférica = peripheral blood

Peripheral blood cells are the cellular components of blood, consisting of red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leucocytes), and platelets, which are found within the circulating pool of blood and not sequestered within the lymphatic system, spleen, liver, or bone marrow.[1]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_blood_cell

Basófilos. 0.1 a 1.5 por mcL de sangre (0.5 a 1%)

What’s the normal range for basophils?
Basophils account for less than three percent of your white blood cells. You should have 0 to 300 basophils per microliter of blood. Keep in mind that blood test normal ranges can vary from lab to lab.

I would suggest to solve the uncertainty with

**200 B/mcL of PB

Peripheral Blood= PB

Prognostic value of persistent peripheral blood and bone marrow lymphoblasts on day 15 of therapy in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia as detected by flow cytometry.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
Peripheral blood (PB) and bone marrow were assessed for leukemia cells by morphology and flow cytometry
RESULTS:
Absolute blast count (ABC) >200/μl in PB by day 15 assessed by flow cytometry predicted a lower probability of disease free survival

agree Anne Schulz : Agree with microliter, B could be blasts/blast cells in T-cell lympho*blastic* cancer

Thank you, Anne, you got a point there. See discussion.
agree Chema Nieto Castañón : Blastos.Tu último enlace resulta plenamente convincente ;) // Buen trabajo ;) Saludos!
