Abstract
The bcr-abl rearrangement in T-lineage ALL has been rarely described. In the last three years we studied all new patients with ALL at diagnosis by cytogenetic and molecular analysis. Three out of eleven T-lineage ALL patients presented the rearrangement and only one was Philadelphia positive.
