Table 4.

Concordance between molecular results and microscopic BM involvement of B cell neoplasia (n=119) and T cell neoplasia (n=29).

BM involvement
of lymphoid neoplasm
Ig rearrangement(B cell neoplasia) TCR rearrangement(T cell neoplasia)
Positive Negative Positive Negative
Positive 25(21.0%) 6(5%) 6(20.7%) 0(0%)
Negative 29(24.4%) 59(49.6%) 14(48.3%) 9(31%)

Ig/TCR rearrangement negative means: no specific product, polyclonal or pseudoclonal. Ig/TCR rearrangement positive means: clonal or clonal with a polyclonal background.
