Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common malignancy of childhood. Currently, chance achieving a permanent remission in children with ALL nearly 80% (1). Relapses remain an important factor that influence final outcome (2). Bone marrow site relapse, accounting for up to 75% all relapses. The central nervous system and testicles are usual sites extramedullar relapse (3). Although leukemic infiltration could occur anywhere, it rather uncommon elsewhere. We report 3 cases esophageal...
Abstract Introduction Childhood B‐cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP‐ALL) can be traced back to birth using leukemic clone‐specific immunoglobulin heavy chain ( IGH ) rearrangements, implying prenatal origin of this disease. Methods We retrospectively analyzed neonatal blood spots (Guthrie cards) 24 patients with childhood BCP‐ALL aged 1–9.6 years (median 3.1 years) for the presence clonotypic rearrangements identified in diagnostic bone marrow samples. Based on sequences 2...
