Abstract
B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia is the most common type of leukemia found in children. Timely diagnosis, white blood cell count, age of onset, and sex are considered the most important prognostic factors in childhood leukemia. Hematological and biochemical profiles are crucially important to infer the health of leukemia patient pre-chemotherapy and post-chemotherapy treatment. In the current study 200 cases were taken and evaluated for hematological (complete blood count and white blood differential count) and biochemical parameters (renal function tests, liver function tests, serum electrolytes and serum proteins) by comparison with normal reference values. Most of the cases were male under 5 years of age. Hematology parameters including red blood cells, hemoglobin and platelet levels were relatively low whereas white blood cells level was high in cases as compared with normal reference value. Sex-wise and age-wise comparison of biochemical profile showed significant difference among B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cases whereas hematological profile did not show any visible difference.
