t(8;14) translocation in a Burkitt's type of lymphoblastic leukaemia (L3).
Cytogenetic findings on five patients with ALL Burkitt's type are reported. A t(8;14) (q23;q32) translocation identical to that found in Burkitt's lymphoma cells was found in each case. The relationship between ALL, L3 type and Burkitt's tumours is discussed.
