A B-cell chronic lymphoid leukemia (B-CLL) associated with IgA expression and secretion is uncommon and has never been described in association with osteolytic bone lesions. We report such a case, defined by cytomorphology and flow cytometric immunophenotyping (FCI). Additional cases may be recogniz

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Reticulinβstained bone marrow fibrosis is associated with a poor prognosis in patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). Resolution of fibrosis with therapy may improve patient outcome. ## METHODS The effect of imatinib therapy on bone marrow fibrosis was evaluat
A patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) having the standard [t(9;22), Ph] translocation is presented where the Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome disappeared following bone marrow transplantation (BMT). The Ph chromosome reappeared in host cells after one year of stable hematologic remission. Th
A 43-year-old male patient with hypercalcemia and osteolytic lesions complicating chronic myelogenous leukemia is presented. Extramedullary myeloid blastic crisis was diagnosed by the histological finding of the specimen biopsied from a osteolytic lesion in the right femur. As the serum levels of pa
Clonogenic capacity of bone marrow progenitors and stromal layers established from bone marrow of 12 patients with CML and 13 healthy controls were evaluated. The initial BFU-E and CFU-GM contents were slightly higher in the CML patients (p > 0.05) in contrast to CFU-GEMM. CFU-GEMM was lower in the
