Résumé fourni par la source

For present work, 27 clinically diagnosed Chronic Myeloid Leukemia patients were selected, who attended the Out Patient Department of Gujarat Cancer and Research Institute, Ahmedabad. In all these cases relevant history, clinical findings, haematological data and other investigations were noted & bone-marrow samples were obtained for further study, which was done at Genetics Laboratory, B.J. Medical College, Ahmedabad. Samples were cultured, harvested, slides were prepared & photographs were obtained using photomicroscope and Karyotypes were prepared by using conventional cut and paste technique. Cytogenetic evaluation was done to detect the presence of Philadelphia chromosome and/or other chromosomal abnormalities. Out of 27 patients studied, 22 cases were having mild to moderate & remaining 5 cases were having huge splenomegaly. The blood picture showed, 9 were anaemic; 11 having total leukocytic count more than 1 lakh/mm 3 ; 8 cases were thrombocytopenic. 25 cases were in chronic and 2 cases were in blastic phase. Cytogenetic evaluation by Karyotypes revealed 13 Ph’ positive cases; 4 Ph’ negative; 3 mosaic & remaining 7 cases came out inconclusive. All relevant parameters including clinical, hematological and cytogenetic were evaluated, analyzed and compared with other similar studies.
