Chromosome studies on bone marrow in a patient with chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) revealed a mosaic picture with a dominant clone of 24,XY, t(9; 22) (q34; q11). This corresponded to a preponderance of minute blasts in smears of bone marrow aspirate. It is suggested that a haploidy event rather than progressive hypodiploid loss, is responsible for the genesis of the miniature blast cells.
Various authors have published advice on the management of victims of sexual assault--male and female. Most published accounts provide general advice, ordered according to theoretical considerations rather than to the chronological sequence of tasks to be performed. Our experience has been that a task list sequenced in chronological fashion is very useful in helping the attending doctor to remember what to do and how to do it. The step-by-step list used for women seen at Perth's Sexual Assault Referral Centre (SARC) is presented here.
