ABSTRACT
In patients with hairy cell leukemia (HCL) who received chemotherapeutic treatment and achieved complete remission (CR), minimal residual disease (MRD) can be detected in bone marrow biopsies using immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. In this study, we investigated the value of flow cytometry (FCM) and IHC to detect MRD and to establish whether MRD+ could predict relapse. A total of 15 HCL patients in CR were studied. Samples of bone marrow (BM) and peripheral blood (PB) were processed by FCM with triple staining of the following monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) CD20, CD22, CD11c, CD103, CD25, anti-Kappa and anti-Lambda light chains. Reference values were obtained from normal samples of peripheral blood and bone marrow. FCM detected MRD in 64
