...A.M. Cohen; U.H. Lewinski; B. Klein; M. Djaldetti Satellitism of platelets to monocytes was observed in 3 patients suffering from polycythaemia vera, a myeloproliferative disorder and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. This phenomenon occurred on cells in the buffy coat obtained from venous blood...

...A.K.S. Singh; R.P.H. Thompson A patient with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) who developed leukaemic meningitis, after chemotherapy had successfully reduced the tumour load, is described. This progressed rapidly as basal meningitis and caused almost a complete obstruction of the lateral...

...J.P. Wallis; M.V. Joyner A patient with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia untreated for 5 years subsequently developed acute myeloid leukaemia. It is suggested that reduced immunocompetence is the likely mechanism in this case and may also be a contributory factor in those cases which have been...

...F.J. Giles; M.P. Smith; A.H. Goldstone A 67-year-old man, who had received intermittent courses of oral chlorambucil and prednisone as therapy for chronic lymphocytic leukaemia over a period of 3.5 years, developed fatal lung fibrosis. A case report and brief review of the current data...

...George Katrinakis; Despina Kyriakou; Helene Papadaki; Irene Kalokyri; Fotini Markidou; George D. Eliopoulos The mechanisms accounting for the impaired natural killer cell activity (NKa) in B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (B-CLL) were investigated in 34 B-CLL patients. We found that patients...
