Familial chronic lymphocytic leukaemia

Note

Familial Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia is described in our Deep-Insight Section, and not yet herein, in this Cancer-Prone-Disease-Cards Section, due to the lack of established facts and answers: the definition of the disease is still in progress and the gene(s) possibly involved are unknown; the Author Martin Yuille of the Deep-Insight on Familial CLL recently initiated an International Co-operative Group to identified CLL families and to collect blood samples; you are encourage to participate
