title: [Prognostic factors in patients with lymphoplasmacytic lymphoplasmacytoid lymphoma in stage IV of clinical progression].
abstract: Retrospective investigations were carried out in 50 patients with L-LP in clinical stage IV. All those patients died of this disease. The life time of the studied patients varied from 2 to 120 months and the median was 29 months. Advanced age, co-occurrence of anaemia and increased serum gammaglobulin level were found to be bad prognostic factors. No correlation was found between life time and tumour size, platelet number, lymphocyte count of blood and bone marrow.
