ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
This study aims to describe immunophenotypic explorations at diagnosis and follow up of a pediatric patient with leukemic phase of ALK+ anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) by multiparametric flow cytometry (MFC). CASE An 8-color MFC combination of antibodies allowed to identify neoplastic cells in concentrations until 0.02% during minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring. Immunophenotypic shifts occurred in key markers as CD30, CD7, CD2, and CD5, however neoplastic cells were clearly discriminated from normal populations.CONCLUSION:
MFC can be a useful tool for ALCL diagnosis and MRD monitoring and may support therapeutic decisions.Palabras clave
