Abstract
Serum leukaemia associated antigen (LAA) was found in 41-75% of patients with acute leukaemia or chronic myelogenous leukaemia, but in only 12% of persons suffering from chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. LAA was present in detectable amounts in 1% of healthy blood donors. Thus LAA is truly leukaemia associated rather than leukaemia specific. Occurrence of LAA in the serum of a leukaemia patient may signal a serious turn of the disease.Entities:
