Item Leukemic phase of anaplastic lymphoma kinase positive, anaplastic large cell lymphoma.(2011-07) Gadage, Vijaya S; Subramanian, P G; Galani, Komal S; Sehgal, Kunal K; Johari, Sachin P; Ghogale, Vijay S; Badrinath, Y; Ashok, K; Gujral, SumeetAnaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a distinct type of CD30+ T/null-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that frequently involves nodal and extranodal sites. The presence of leukemic phase in ALCL is extremely rare and occurs exclusively with ALK1-positive ALCL. We describe two patients with ALK1-positive ALCL who developed a leukemic phase with rapid progression of the disease. Immunophenotypic pattern assessed on peripheral blood by flow cytometry revealed CD45, CD30, and CD25 positivity in both cases but NPM-ALK1 was expressed in only one case. Both patients developed leukemic phase as a terminal event of the disease and we share the immunophenotypic features of both cases.Item A study on coverage and compliance of mass drug administration programme for elimination of filariasis in Udupi district, Karnataka, India.(2009-09) Kumar, Ashwini; Kumar, Pawan; Nagaraj, Kondagunta; Nayak, Divakar; Ashok, Lena; Ashok, K
