title: Cytogenetic findings in a case of Sézary syndrome.
abstract: Repeated cytogenetic studies were carried out on a Sézary syndrome patient during a 1-year period. The presence of a single clone of heteroploid (60-86 chromosomes) cells was a permanent finding in the PHA-stimulated blood cultures. The bone marrow was normal. Sister chromatid exchange (SCE) value was relatively lower in heteroploid cells.
