title: Chromosome examinations on a six-hour culture of unstimulated peripheral blood from a patient with childhood erythroleukaemia.
abstract: A six-hour culture of unstimulated peripheral blood from a patient with childhood erythroleukaemia was examined for chromosome karyotype. The characteristic chromosomal abnormalities of erythroleukaemia del (5q) and monosomy 7 were found in this case together with a marker chromosome and other chromosomal abnormalities. The results suggest the usefulness of this simple method in the cytogenetic diagnosis of some types of leukaemias.
