Abstract
The simultaneous coexpression of lymphoid and myeloid markers has been observed in some cases of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemias (AL L). In this paper, we describe a 6-year-old male patient with an ALL e xpressing myeloid antigens in whom a novel karyotypic association, t(8 ;22) and monosomy 7, and high Ag-NOR activity were found concomitantly with a very short survival.
