Flow cytometric detection of leukemic blasts in Libyan pediatric patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia

We present immunophenotypic data for the first time describing ALL cases in Libya. The reported results indicate that the most common subtype was pro-B ALL, and the frequency of T-ALL subtype was higher compared to previous studies. Six cases were positive for both myeloid and B lymphoid markers. Our findings may provide the basis for future studies to correlate immunophenotypic profile and genetic characteristics with treatment response among ALL patients.PMID:38394044 | DOI:10.1080/19932820.2024.2319895
