Congenital leukemia is a rare disease in which a leukemic process is present at birth or immediately thereafter. The majority of cases presented in the literature were reported prior to the availability of contemporary immunophenotyping methods, and lineage assignment was often made on the basis of morphology alone. Congenital leukemias may be of various lineages, although, historically, monocytic and myelomonocytic congenital leukemias appear to be the most prevalent. We present two cases of congenital leukemia with detailed immunophenotypic and cytochemical characterization. One case is of the lymphoid lineage, and the second is of myelomonocytic lineage. Neither patient displayed trisomy 21.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.
