· Low hypodiploid / near triploid acute lymphoblastic leukemia (LH-ALL) is infrequent in children with precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and development of a secondary malignancy, particularly myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), is additionally uncommon. Here we report a case of a year-old girl who initially presented with a precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic . · A lineage switch in leukemia, in which the leukemic cell lineage at onset converts to another lineage at a later time, is an uncommon type of hybrid (mixed) leukemia regarded as a variation of bilineage leukemia. We present a case of a year-old female diagnosed with precursor B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), whose markers in flow cytometry shifted from their original . · Osteolytic bone lesions and hypercalcemia without peripheral blasts B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is reported in children but rarely seen in adults. We describe the case of a year old man presenting with hypercalcemia and symptomatic osteolytic bone lesions of vertebrae and ribs who was initially suspected as having a solid malignancy.
Acute lymphoid leukemia (ALL) is a type of hematological neoplasm that affects the precursor cells of strains B, T and NK, with a higher incidence in the pediatric range. The pathophysiology of ALL is characterized by chromosomal abnormalities and genetic alterations involved in the differentiation and proliferation of lymphoid precursor cells. Despite the lack of information in the literature. For the treatment of pediatric and young adult patients (age years) with B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that is refractory or in second or later relapse. Adult patients.

Precursor B acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL), the most common childhood malignancy, arises from an expansion of malignant B cell precursors in the bone marrow. Epidemiological studies suggest that infections or immune responses to infections may promote such an expansion and thus BCP-ALL development. Nevertheless, a specific pathogen responsible for this process has not been identified. INTRODUCTION. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer of childhood, with an annual incidence of 35 per million children aged 0 to 14 years. 1 There is a peak incidence between the ages of 2 to 5 years, with more than 75% of cases occurring in this age group. 2 More than 80% are B-cell precursor ALL (BCP-ALL), while the remainder comprise T-lineage ALL. Precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL)/lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LBL) is defined as a neoplasm of lymphoblasts committed to the B-cell lineage, typically composed of small- to medium-sized blast cells with scant cytoplasm, moderately condensed to dispersed chromatin, and inconspicuous nucleoli [].
