The Philadelphia Chromosome, from Negative to Positive: a Case Report of Relapsed Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Following Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation
Abstract:Relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) represents a continuous challenge for the clinician. Despite recent advances in treatment, the risk of relapse remains significant. The clinical, biological, cytogenetic, and molecular characteristics may be different at the time of relapse. Current comprehensive genome sequencing studies suggest that most relapsed patients, especially those with late relapses, acquire new genetic abnormalities, usually within a minor clone that emerges after ALL diagnosis.
