[The current criteria of cell identification in acute lymphoblastic leukemia].
The categorization of subvariants of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is made on the basis of the data from literature on the study of immunological phenotype, gene rearrangements, chromosomal abnormalities and oncogene expression in neoplastic lymphoid cells. It is supposed, that such combined approach to categorization of ALL will promote further development of precise identification of leukemic cells and, consequently, the elaboration of optimal regimen of the therapy.
