I was stuck between those as well. My thought process was that megakaryocytosis would be mature megakaryocytes though, which would not happen in a megakaryoblastic leukemia since they are stuck in the blast stage. That left only lymphoblasts, and I presume while one may be MORE likely age 5, a patient with Down Syndrome is still at higher risk for both.

"Megaloblastosis" as in the answer choices refers to megaloblastic anemia in B12 and folate deficiency, so it is not associated with megakaryocytes or megakaryoblastic anemia! Hope this helps!

"We ALL fall Down" to remember Down syndrome is associated with ALL

I thought that a child with down syndrome under the age of 5, had a chance of getting acute megakaryoblastic leukemia? and over 5, acute lymphoblastic leukemia?
