A Bi-Lineal Acute Leukemia (T/Myeloid, NOS) with Complex Cytogenetic Abnormalities.

ABSTRACT

We report an unusual case of bi-lineal mixed-phenotype acute leukemia (T/Myeloid, NOS) with complex cytogenetic abnormalities in a 2-year-old boy. Despite attaining complete remission with therapy, he succumbed to status epilepticus following febrile illness. Flow cytometry represents the current standard of care for the diagnosis of this malignancy and the approach adopted in our case is discussed.
