Hi y'all,
In spite of the many leuks. we've phenotyped over the years, the M7
classification never showed it's head here in Oman until recently.
In the last six months we have had 3 come through, all 41 & 61 positive (and no,
there was no platelet adherence).
My question to those who've met this type is are they always CD7 and CD45
positive as our three are.
The strength of CD7 expression is inversely proportional to the 41/61 expression
and the CD45 is quite bright in all three.
