Usually presents as a leukemia. Organ involvement is possible. Lymphomatous presentation is rare.

Abstractor Notes

(This code is effective for cases diagnosed 2010 and later. For cases diagnosed prior to 2010, see codes: 9728/3 [lymphoma] or 9836/3 [leukemia].)

This neoplasm occurs in both children and adults. Children usually have a better outcome.

This neoplasm is confirmed by immunological markers and/or ultrastructural cytochemistry.

Diagnostic Confirmation

This histology can only be determined by positive genetics and/or immunophenotyping, diagnostic confirmation will always be 3.

Alternate Names

B-ALL with BCR-ABL1

Definition

B-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (B-ALL/LBL) with t(9;22)(q34.1;q11.2); BCR-ABL1 is a neoplasm of lymphoblasts committed to the B-cell lineage in which the blasts harbor a translocation between BCR on chromosome 22 and the ABL1 oncogene on chromosome 9.

Definitive Diagnostic Methods

Bone marrow biopsy
Genetic testing
Immunophenotyping
Peripheral blood smear

Genetics Data

Immunophenotyping

CD10+ (expression/positive)
CD19+ (expression/positive)
TdT+ (expression/positive)

Treatments

Chemotherapy
Hematologic Transplant and/or Endocrine Procedures
