Popis: Bone marrow abnormalities were assessed in 6 patients with hairy cell leukemia after 2-chlorodeoxyadenosine treatment. In spite of clinical and haematological remission in all patients, hairy cells and fibrosis were found within the marrow. However, the hairy cells number, the thickness of argentophilic fibres and the extent of fibrosis. It was stressed that in addition to histological analysis with hematoxylin-eosin also other stainings for fibrosis should be applied in the bone marrow evaluation, followed by immunohistochemical and molecular methods which allow to exclude minimal residual disease after leukemia treatment.
