| Disease | acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) |
| Epidemiology | a very rare type of leukaemia, primarily of young adults |
| Cytology | vacuolated small and large blasts |
| Prognosis | poor prognosis with short complete remission duration |
| Cytogenetics |
| Cytogenetics Morphological | ALL with severe hypodiploidy is characterised by chromosome number ranging from 30-39 and the chromosomes commonly retained are copies of 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 18, 19, 21, 22, and the sex chromosomes; cells with double the hypodiploid number may also be present |
