translocation of c-myc protooncogene on chromosome 8<br />

to the immunoglobulin coding gene region on chromosome<br />

14. Lymphoblasts that are unable to differentiate and<br />

mature continue to accumulate in the bone marrow. ALL<br />

patients develop anemia, granulocytopenia, and thrombocytopenia.<br />

L1, L2, and L3 lymphoblast cytologic subtypes<br />

are recognized. ALL is diagnosed by the demonstration<br />

of lymphoblasts in the bone marrow. The total leukocyte<br />

count is normal or decreased in half of the cases with or<br />

without lymphoblasts in the peripheral blood. An elevated<br />

leukocyte count is usually accompanied by lymphoblasts<br />

in the peripheral blood. Patients develop a normochromic,<br />

normocytic anemia with thrombocytopenia and neutropenia.<br />

They may develop weakness, malaise, and pallor<br />

secondary to anemia. Half the individuals develop bleeding<br />

secondary to thrombocytopenia, and many develop<br />

bacterial infections secondary to neutropenia. Patients<br />

also experience bone pain. Generalized lymphadenopathy<br />

especially affects the cervical lymph nodes. Frequently,<br />

hepatosplenomegaly and leukemic meningitis are present.<br />

The age at onset and initial total blood leukocyte count<br />

are valuable prognostic features. Ninety percent (90%) of
