    Notizen: Summary Clinical and laboratory features of seven patients with acute leukemia associated with the (4; 11) chromosome translocation are presented. Leukemic blasts of these patients showed lymphoid morphology in 6 (although 1 was treated for monoblastic leukemia 3 years earlier) and monocytoid morphology in 1, were positive for TdT and HD 37 (CD 19) in 6 patients, whereas weak expression of CALLA was seen in only 1 patient and T-lineage-associated antigens in none. Leukemic blasts from four patients showed the simultaneous expression of B-lymphoid and myeloid antigens, suggesting leukemogenesis in a very early multipotent progenitor cell. In 2 patients an isochromosome of the long arm of No. 7 chromosome was found in the leukemic karyotypes in addition to t (4; 11) (q21; q23); in one instance present at diagnosis, in the other one occurring at relapse. In one other patient leukemia karyotype also demonstrated trisomy 8. Leukemic cells of three patients were investigated by molecular genetics and demonstrated immunoglobulin gene rearrangements for the Ig heavy chain sequences but not for the light chain constant regions and T cell receptor sequences. All patients were treated by intensive chemotherapy. Four of the 7 patients are in continuous complete remission. The longest event-free survival time (over 2 1/2 years) was seen in one patient who had also DOWN-syndrome. Including these 7 patients a clinical analysis of 71 patients with t (4; 11) acute leukemia was made, emphasizing the following characteristics at diagnosis: female sex (62%), age under 2 years (49%), leukocyte count over 100×109/1 (61%), splenomegaly (80%), CNS-disease (11%). Survival of over 2 years was reported in less than 15% of the patients. It remains to be seen if risk-adapted treatment can alter the course of this early B-precursor acute leukemia with hitherto very bad prognosis.
