Bone marrow patterns in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia related to various clinical and haematological findings. A preliminary report.

In a retrospective study of 55 CLL cases subjected to bone-marrow biopsy, the histological pattern of the bone-marrow was correlated to the clinical and haematological data. Instead of the four histological patterns described by Rozman et al., five patterns have been established. The clinical staging according to the Montserrat score, compared with the bone-marrow pattern, showed a good correlation, when maintenance or replacement of normal haematopoiesis was considered. The bone-marrow pattern with maintained haematopoiesis was predicting a favourable clinical correlation; those with replaced haematopoiesis corresponded to a poor prognosis. The correlation is a useful index of severity and prognosis of CLL.

[Blood histamine level in chronic myeloproliferative diseases; a review].

Since the discovery of a very high blood histamine level in chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) 1936, the author could ascertain that this parameter is very useful in the differential diagnosis between CML and various "leukemoid" reactions; in the early diagnosis of CML and in the differential diagnosis between CML and other myeloproliferative disorders. Recent researches proved that no correlation exists between blood histamine level and basophil count in the peripheral blood. Further investigations in this field have to clear up the questions whether it is possible by means of repeated controls of the blood histamine level to predict the development of a polycythemia vera into CML or to establish in a case of osteomyelosclerosis that this disease has been Preceeded by A CML.
