Immunophenotypic Characteristics of T-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in Omani Patients: A Correlation with Demographic Factors.

Objectives: To study and classify the immunophenotypic characteristics of Omani patients diagnosed with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and to correlate the results with age and gender as well as biological factors (peripheral and bone marrow blast cells percentage).

Methods: Fifty cases from both genders and of all ages who fulfilled the inclusion criteria with a diagnosis of T-ALL were included in the study. Correlation of T-ALL subtypes with age, gender, and initial bone marrow and peripheral blood blast cells percentage was assessed using ANOVA.
