Method : Immunophenotyping
Impression :
- The scatter parameters and antigen expression and antigen expression profile studied in correlation with morphological findings are consistent with B cell lymphoproliferative disease , suggestive of #CHRONIC LYMPOCYTIC LEUKEMIA#.
Patient refer to medical oncologist for further management.
