Hairy cell leukaemia: observations on natural killer activity in different clinical stages of the disease.

abstract：:The use of L-asparaginase (L-ASP) in paediatric patients with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is associated with thrombotic complications. We evaluated the activities of tissue factor (TFa), thrombomodulin (TMa) and procoagulant phospholipids (PPL) in 26 consecutive children with ALL (25 B-ALL and one T-ALL) treat...
