Abstract:
From 2 years of program for diagnostic and treatment quality elevation to 4 main diseases of blood and hematopoiesis, consisting of acute leukemia (AL), idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), aplastic anemia (AA) and hemophilia, we get some results. Firstly, we designed the basic feature of subtypes of AL, found out new subtypes, such as stem cell AL. which could not be detected by conventional techniques. Basing upon development of new techniques of bone marrow biopsy and immunological technique, we can diagnose exactly some difficult cases of hematopoiesis, such as aplastic anemia, myelodisplassia, bone marrow metastasia, multiple myeloma, smouldering AL. This takes an important part to elevate treatment quality of acute blood diseases in Vietnam. On treatment field, splenectomy can be effective for immunomodulation in patients, who display dis-balance of CD4/CD8 ratio.
