Abstract:
Analyse chromosome in bone marrow of 66 patients with myeloid leukemia and 27 patients with lymphoblastic leukemia treated in NIHBT from 1997 to 2001, in comparison with result at of some treatment, and duration of remission showed that: In myeloid leukemia, patients with translocation (8q, 21q) and translocation (15q; 17q) have favourable prognostic (they have high rate, long period of remission). In lymphoblastic leukemia, patients with philadelphia chromosome have defavourable prognostic. Although they have remission but short period of remission. It is necessary to look for another way for treatment these patients.
