Abstract

The bone marrow from 55 children with acute lymphocytic leukemia diagnosed from April 1969 to June 1973 were evaluated for blast cell morphology and size. Sixteen marrows contained a predominance of macrolymphoblasts (> 12 ฮผ), while the remainder contained mainly microlymphoblasts. There was no correlation between blast cell size and the known frontโ€end prognostic indicators of age and initial white blood count, nor could blast cell size be used to predict the length of initial bone marrow remission.
