Abstract excerpt
Nine cases of acute leukemia presenting unusual phenotype were studied by light microscopy (LM) cytochemistry and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) immunocytochemistry with the immunogold staining (IGS) method; in addition, cytogenetic and molecular analyses were performed. The presence of myeloperoxidase (MPO) was studied at TEM in combination with immunophenotype to identify minor populations not...
