We describe a 40-year-old woman with a history of precursor T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia who developed an orbital mass associated with diffuse infiltration of the paranasal sinuses. The clinical and radiologic findings suggested an orbital abscess. Examination of orbital and ethmoid sinus biopsy specimens revealed relapse of precursor T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Although orbital...
BACKGROUND Mutations in the PHF6 gene were recently described in patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and in those with acute myeloid leukemia. The present study was designed to determine the prevalence of PHF6 gene alterations in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. DESIGN AND METHODS We analyzed the incidence and prognostic value of PHF6 mutations in 96 Chinese patients with T-...
BACKGROUND Until recently, few molecular aberrations were recognized in acute lymphoblastic leukemia of T-cell origin; novel lesions have recently been identified and a certain degree of overlap between acute myeloid leukemia and T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia has been suggested. To identify novel T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia entities, gene expression profiling was performed and cli...
The appendix is an unusual site for extramedulary relapse in acute leukemia. The present case report describes two cases of late course acute lymphoblastic leukemia presented with leukemic infiltration of the appendix and complete remission of bone marrow. The signs and symptoms of the cases suggest that leukemic involvement of the appendix should be considered in the differential diagnosis of ...
C hronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a frequent CD5 + B-cell neoplasia that involves peripheral blood, bone marrow, lymph nodes and other lym-phoid tissues. The median age of patients at diagnosis of CLL is around 70 years old and the prognosis is extremely variable. In spite of some advances in its therapy, CLL continues to be incurable. Due to this fact, and to the prognos-tic heterogeneity...
Background: Acute leukemia is one of the most common types of childhood malignancies and one fourth of malignancies in this age group is acute leukemia. Acute leukemia may be myeloid or lymphoid. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is characterized with abnormal proliferation of lymphoid cells and symptoms related to this are acute and if disease is not treated appropriately, it progresses rapidly and...
Temozolomide (TMZ), an alkylating agent, is widely used for treating high-grade gliomas. TMZ has been reported to cause secondary myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia. However, TMZ-related acute lymphoblastic leukemia is rare. Here we describe a 54-year-old woman with glioblastoma multiforme, who developed precursor-B acute lymphoblastic leukemia with translocation (4;11)(q21;q23...
The transcription factor Sox4 plays an indispensable role in the development of early progenitor B cells from hematopoietic stem cells. However, its role in B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, a malignant counterpart of normal progenitor B cells, is not fully understood. Here we show that SOX4 is highly expressed in human acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells. To systematically study the function...
B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia is the most common type of pediatric leukemia. Despite improved remission rates, current treatment regimens for pediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia are often associated with adverse effects and central nervous system relapse, necessitating more effective and safer agents. Bafilomycin A1 is an inhibitor of vacuolar H(+)-ATPase that is frequently used...
Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate long-term changes in bone density profile among survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Patients and Methods: This was a 5 year prospective study comprised of thirty-one survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia with a mean age of 11.8 (4.6) years, who completed therapy at least 1 year previously (according to the ...
