  • Title: Pre-ALL and non-A, non-B hepatitis infection.
    Author: Ireland R, Gillett D, Mieli-Vergani G, Mufti G.
    Journal: Leuk Res; 1988; 12(10):795-7. PubMed ID: 3143864.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia which presented as hypoplastic anaemia following Non-A, Non-B viral hepatitis infection. The role of infection and the mechanisms involved in the evolution of pre-ALL to overt leukaemia remain speculative. However, it is of practical importance to distinguish pre-ALL from aplastic anaemia and the myelodysplastic syndromes during the early pancytopenic phase to avoid inappropriate management.
