Abstract
The leukemias of mature B cells and T cells are a limited set of diseases in which blood and bone marrow are the primary sites of involvement. Although they may superficially resemble one another, they have distinct clinical and pathologic features and must be distinguished from one another. In this article, the major clinical, morphologic, phenotypic, and molecular genetic features of the mature B- and T-cell leukemias are reviewed, and differential diagnostic considerations are discussed.
