Real world outcome of B ALL with t (1; 19) (q23; p13)/TCF3::PBX1 in adolescents and adults treated with intensive regimes.

Significant heterogeneity has been reported in outcome of Acute lymphoblastic leukemia with t(1;19)(q23;p13)/TCF3::PBX1 in adolescents and adults leading to a lack of consensus on precise risk stratification. We evaluated clinical outcome of 17 adult ALL cases (≥15 years) with this genotype treated on intensive regimes.13/17 received COG0232 and 4/17 cases received UK-ALL protocol.

The applications of arthroscopy on malleolus fractures.

It was well known that in 1918 Takagi performed the first arthroscopic inspection of a cadaver's knee in Japan.(1) His interest in this area laid the foundation for arthroscopy and facilitated the development of arthroscope. In 1931, Burman reported an experimental study on the arthroscopic exploration of cadaveric joints, but he believed that the ankle joint was unsuitable for such techniques because it was too narrow to pass through the posterior puncture.
