Abstract excerpt

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common type of adult leukemia, particularly in Western countries. CLL can present indolently or aggressively, influenced by various factors, including chromosomal alterations. Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), targeting specific genes/loci frequently affected in CLL patients, has established a standard for stratifying five CLL prognostic groups: del(11q)/ATM,...
