Abstract
Diagnosis and treatment of hematological malignancies, a diverse category of tumors that begin in the blood and bone marrow, are extremely difficult. Our knowledge of these conditions has been revolutionized by the development of cytogenetics, the study of chromosomes and genetic abnormalities. A total of 180 patients with benign and malignant hematological malignancy had peripheral bone marrow or blood samples obtained using the standard G-banding procedure. Fifty-one percent of patients had normal karyotypes. In addition, thirty individuals (15%) had a complicated karyotype whereas eighty-five percent (85%) had a normal one. Three-hundred and three percent of patients were diagnosed with Pre-B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (Pre-B ALL), followed by twenty percent with Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML), and fourteen percent with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia.
