Understanding Your Results

Results from the ALL PCR Panel are interpreted based on the presence or absence of specific gene fusions or rearrangements. Positive results indicate the presence of genetic abnormalities associated with ALL, which can guide treatment decisions.
📊

BCR/ABL Positive

Indicates Philadelphia chromosome-positive ALL, often requiring targeted therapy like tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

📊

TEL/AML1 Positive

Associated with good prognosis in childhood ALL, typically responsive to standard chemotherapy.

📊

MLL Rearrangement Positive

Linked to aggressive disease and poor prognosis, may necessitate intensive treatment or stem cell transplant.

📊

E2A Rearrangement Positive

Associated with poor prognosis, requiring specialized treatment protocols.

📊

All Negative

No common genetic abnormalities detected; further testing may be needed for diagnosis.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

Consult your doctor immediately if you experience symptoms like persistent fever, fatigue, or easy bruising. After receiving test results, discuss them with your hematologist or oncologist for appropriate management.

Limitations

  • May not detect all genetic variants of ALL
  • Results should be correlated with clinical findings and other tests
  • False negatives or positives are possible but rare

Risks & Considerations

  • Minor pain or bruising at the collection site
  • Rare risk of infection at bone marrow aspiration site

Interfering Factors

  • Contaminated sample
  • Improper sample handling or storage
  • Recent blood transfusions
