title: [Chronic lymphatic leukemia from B CD5+ cells: characteristics, clinical and laboratory features, and immunophenotyping].
abstract: Fifty four cases of CLLB were studied from 1st of April. 1990 to October 30, 1993; 35 male and 19 female (M:F = 1.8:1) in age 39-76 years (median age = 62 years). 81% patients had lymphadenopathy, 30%--hepatomegaly, 31% splenomegaly, 24% had allergic symptoms, 24% had anaemia (7% AINH). 13% thrombopoenia (2% autoimmunologic thrombopoenia). In all cases immunological phenotype of peripheral blood lymphocytes was determined, 100% patients had B cells CD5+, 70% lymphocytes sIg+, 97%-CD19+, 73%-CD23+, 67%-CD22+, 82%-HLADr, 10%-71(TR90), CD10 was negative. There was negative correlation between B CD5+ cells and life span (p < 0.03). There was positive correlation, between CD23 and bulky diseases (p < 0.01). Percentage of T cells with CD2+, CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ and CD4:CD8 was diminished. Lymphocytosis T with antigens CD2+, CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ was enhanced. There was found a positive correlation between lymphocytosis CD2+ (p < 0.00009), CD4+ (p < 0.008), CD8+ (p < 0.0008) and blood lymphocytosis and positive correlation between T lymphocytosis CD2+ (p < 0.02), CD4+ (p < 0.002) and lymphocytosis bone marrow.
