Fifty-one children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia on a common protocol of treatment were classified according to presence or absence of chromosomal abnormalities found at the time of diagnosis in bone marrow and/ or blood. Twenty-two or 43% had normal karyotypes while 29 (57%) had clonal abnormal

## Abstract High hyperdiploidy (51β67 chromosomes) is the most common cytogenetic abnormality pattern in childhood Bβcell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), occurring in 25β30% of such cases. High hyperdiploid ALL is characterized cytogenetically by a nonrandom gain of chromosomes X, 4,
