| Description | Eighty percent of children suffering from AML show clonal chromosomal aberrations. The most frequent types t(8;21), t(15;17), inv(16) and 11q23 comprise 40-45% of all AML cases in children. Using molecular techniques long-term monitoring of residual disease has become possible, although the mass of leukemic cells has dropeed far below the dection level of morphologic and cytogenetic examination. |
