In a sibship of 5 brothers and 7 sisters, 3 sisters died from acute myelocytic leukaemia while a 4th probably had the same disease. Laboratory studies on the close relatives revealed that a 5th sister had persistently high erythrocyte sedimentation-rates and serum-IgM levels and serological evidence of acute leukaemia-associated antigens. These findings suggest a possible preleukaemic state in this patient.
在一个有5个兄弟和7个姐妹的家庭中,3个姐妹死于急性髓细胞白血病,而第4个姐妹可能也患有同样的疾病。对其近亲进行的实验室研究显示,第5个姐妹的红细胞沉降率和血清IgM水平持续偏高,并且有急性白血病相关抗原的血清学证据。这些发现表明该患者可能处于白血病前期状态。
