Symptoms of Chronic Lymphoid LEukemia

Naive B-cell Leukemia

  1. A-globulenemia(abnormal Ig ,so no function)
  2. Hemolysis(Auto-immunity)
  3. Lymphoma(As b-cell goes to lymph)

Mature B-cell

  1. Rash (Cd4+ cell to skin)
  2. Lymphadenopathy, Hepatic spleenomegaly

Symptoms of Myeloproliferative Disorder

  • Hyper-uraemia ,risk of GOUT
  • MArrow Fibrosis(burnout)
  • AML /ALL risk
