Cytochemistry and Ultrastructure of T-Cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

  • Chapter
Human Leukemias

Part of the book series: Developments in Oncology Series ((DION,volume 14))

Abstract

Though rare, T-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (T CLL) is being diagnosed more frequently. Diagnosis of this disorder appears important for two reasons. First, lymphatic cells from subtypes of T CLL may correspond to different subtypes of normal T-Iymphocytes. This enables morphological and functional properties of subfractions of T-lymphocytes to be studied that are difficult to isolate from normal blood. Second, subtypes of T CLL may have clinical peculiarities that will be recognized with more accuracy when more patients are observed and findings on them published.
