Abstract
50 leukemic patients were analyzed in a retrospective study in regard to their cytology and cytochemistry at the time of diagnosis. They were classified as ALL-PAS type, SCL-undifferentiated type and AML-peroxydase type. The results show that the combined cytological and cytochemical classification of childhood leukemia give more information about the expected course of a newly diagnosed leukemia in regard to duration of first remission and survival time and about its proper treatment.Keywords
