  • Title: ["Pseudoleukemia" in a newborn infant with trisomy 21].
    Author: Mutz ID, Urban CE.
    Journal: Helv Paediatr Acta; 1977 Apr; 31(6):515-20. PubMed ID: 323201.
    Abstract:
    The increased incidence of leukemia in patients with trisomy 21 is well established. A blood disorder which may be mistaken for acute leukemia may occur in infants with trisomy 21. The authors report a newborn with trisomy 21 and hematologic findings suggesting acute leukemia (hyperleukocytosis, anemia, thrombocytopenia; replacement of bone marrow by blast-like cells). Without treatment spontaneous and complete recovery occurred. Cytochemistry and therapy are discussed in this paper.
