Summary: An analysis of the C-segment variability of chromosomes
1,9, i 16was carried out in 38 children with ALL, and 90 control
subjects.When studying location variants, no differences were foundbetween
group of patients and the normal controls. A largerquantity of structural
heterochromatin was, however, observed onchromosomes 1,9, and 16, and a
higher frequency of homologouschromosomes heteromorphism in children with
ALL when comparedwith the control group.

Summary: In this work we present the results of cytogenetic analysis
ofthe malignant cells in 27 children with acute nonlymphocyticleukemia
(ANLL). The aim of our investigations was to determinethe frequency and
types of chromosome aberations in ourpopulation of children with ANLL.
Successful cytogenetic analysiswas carried out in 24 (89%) patients.
Aberrant karyotypes ofmalignant cells were established in 58% of the cases.
The mostfrequent chromosomal abnormality was t(8;21), identified in
5(20.8%) patients i.e., 4 of 10 M2-ANLL. Aberration frequency ofchromosome
11 was 16.6% and was identified in 3 of 8 M5-ANLL.Trisomy 8 and monosomy 7
were identified in one patient each withM3 and M2-ANLL, respectively, del
(13), a rare chromosomeaberration in hemoblastosis, was found in a child
with M1 t(8;21)and the loss of chromosome Y. Translocation t(1;11;21) with
breakin regions 1q23, 11q22, is unusual and was identified in a boywith
M2-ANLL; it can be considered as a variant form of thet(8;21).

Summary: We report the results of cytogenetic analysis in two
childrenwith neuroblastoma. The analysis was performed on slides
obtainedfrom a 24-hour bone marrow (BM) culture or by a direct method ofthe
primary tumor tissue. The structural and numeric karyotypeaberrations were
established, including structural aberrations ofchromosome 1. The finding
of i(1q) and t(1;5) (p22;q13) is ofinterest because these chromosome
aberations are rare in thistype of disease.

Summary: Human umbilical cord blood contains
haematopoieticstem/progenitor cells and is sufficient to induce
haematopoieticreconstitution. In this case report, we present a 28-month
oldgirl with chronic myelogenous Ph+ leukaemia who received HLAidentical
cord blood graft. At birth, lo6 ml cord blood wascollected and frozen in
10% DMSO at -196 C. The patient receiveda total body irradiation (12 Gy in
three daily fraction) andcyclophosphamide (120 mg/kg) followed by cord
blood infusion. Atotal of 8.3 x 10 6/ml nucleated and 0.8 x 10 9/kg
wastransplanted. Cyclosporin was used as a GVHD prophylaxis.Engraftment was
documented on day 18 without any symptoms ofacute GVHD.Tus these results
suggest that umbilical-cord blood isa sufficient source of cells for
haematologic reconstitution.
