Abstract
A complete report was recently published [1] which describes the results of our experience at Memorial Hospital in the treatment of adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia during the past 20 years as of December 1986 and compares them with those of other large published series. In this paper I will update our overall experience, summarize the results of our most recent trials, and discuss our future plans.Keywords
