Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical significance and characteristic of acute leukemia(AL) immunophenotype expression in children.Methods Immunofluoscence labeled with three and two color monoclonal antibodies directly were used to analyze the surface antigen and cytoplastic antigen.Cytoplastic antigen was detected by flow cytometry additionally.Results Specimens from 85 patients with childhood acute leukemia were detected.1.The undifferentiated phenotype account for 1 case(1.2%);Mixed leukemia 7 cases(8.2%);Acute myeloid leukemia 18 cases(21.2%);Acute lymphoid leukemia 59 cases(69.4%).The subtypes of acute lymphoid leukemia:(B-ALL) 50 cases(84.7%),T-ALL 6 cases(10.2%),T/B 3 cases(5.1%).2.Among 59 cases of acute lymphoid leukemia,there were 31 cases ALL expression myeloid-associated antigen;There was no difference on the clinical and prognosis between the group of myeloid-associated antigen positive and the negative group.3.Of 18 patients with AML,5 patients(27.8%) expressed lymphoid antigen,CD7 was the most commonly expressed(60%);The frequency of CD_(14) expression in childhood M4,M5 was 75%.CD_(13),CD_(33) presented in 83.3% and 94.4% cases of AML,respectively.4.Among 7 cases acute mixed leukemia,B/M 6 cases,TB/M 1 case.Five cases were misdiagnosed as ALL by FAB classification.Conclusions With the multi-color flow cytometry,every acute leukemia patient was diagnosed accurately,especially on acute mixed leukemia and cross-lineage expression leukemia.Those help us choice the best treatment protocol for childhood AL.
