Article Synopsis
  • Multiparametric flow cytometry (MFC) is used for diagnosing and managing B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) by monitoring leukemic cell characteristics and minimal residual disease (MRD) during treatment.
  • This study investigated the role of the myeloid marker CD371 in MRD detection for patients diagnosed with CD371-positive B-ALL, analyzing data from 238 patients over critical treatment periods.
  • Findings showed that 8.4% of B-ALL patients were CD371-positive, with specific associations to age and other leukemic markers, suggesting that CD371 status in patients may provide critical insights for future research and treatment approaches.

The patient was a febrile, and clinical oral examination revealed localised grade II mobility and absence of gingival swelling, erythema or sinus tract. Orthopantogram revealed a poorly defined radiolucency involving the upper left second and third molar teeth.
