Immunophenotypic Subtyping of Leukemic Cells from Iranian Patients with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia: Association to Disease Outcome
Background: Immunophenotypic characterization of the leukemic cells has been widely used as a tool for diagnosis, classification, stratification and prognosis of leukaemia. Objective: To investigate the immunophenotypic subtype profiles of Iranian patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and its association to disease outcome.

متن کاملAcute lymphoblastic leukaemia.
Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, a malignant disorder of lymphoid progenitor cells, affects both children and adults, with peak prevalence between the ages of 2 and 5 years. Steady progress in development of effective treatments has led to a cure rate of more than 80% in children, creating opportunities for innovative approaches that would preserve past gains in leukaemia-free survival while redu...
متن کاملInfections in acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.
We did a retrospective study of all acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) patients on United Kingdom ALL protocol who were admitted for febrile neutropenia. The aim of the study was to document the types of infections and aetiological agents associated with febrile neutropenia and to document the factors affecting mortality. Over the 8 1/2-year period from 1986 to June 1995, there were 77 episode...
