Overview
The Chromosome Analysis (Philadelphia) test detects the BCR‑ABL1 fusion gene through conventional karyotyping of bone marrow aspirate, essential for diagnosing and monitoring chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and Philadelphia‑positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
يكشف تحليل كروموسوم فيلادلفيا عن جين BCR‑ABL1 الاندماجي عبر التنميط النووي التقليدي لعينة نخاع العظم، وهو أساسي لتشخيص ومتابعة ابيضاض الدم النقوي المزمن وابيضاض الأرومات الليمفاوية الحاد إيجابي فيلادلفيا.
| Feature | Our Karyotyping Test | Closest Alternative (FISH BCR‑ABL1) |
|---|---|---|
| Methodology | Conventional Karyotyping (Giemsa banding) with cell culture | Fluorescence in‑situ Hybridization (FISH) |
| Turnaround Time | 7 Working Days | 2–3 Working Days |
| Clinical Utility | Detects Philadelphia chromosome, other balanced translocations, and complex karyotypes; essential for risk stratification | Rapid detection of BCR‑ABL1 fusion only; limited karyotypic information |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
"As a hematologist, I understand the anxiety that accompanies a leukemia diagnosis. This karyotyping provides critical genetic information to guide targeted therapy decisions. Please remember, never alter your medication without consulting your healthcare team."
— Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY, DHA License 61713011
⚠️ Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor.
Precautions & Exclusion Criteria
- Exclusion: Uncorrected severe coagulopathy (INR >2.0) or platelet count <50,000/µL – discuss with your physician before bone marrow aspiration.
- Site Infection: Active skin infection at the aspiration site (posterior iliac crest) is a contraindication.
- Post‑Procedure Red Flags: Seek emergency care if you experience excessive bleeding, purulent discharge, fever >38.5°C, or severe pain unrelieved by prescribed analgesics.
- Transport: Bone marrow specimen must be collected in a Green Top (Sodium Heparin) tube, refrigerated immediately (DO NOT FREEZE), and reach our lab within 24 hours. A fully completed Chromosome & FISH Analysis Requisition form (Form 17) is mandatory.
- Pediatric & CDS Compliance: For minors, collection adheres to UAE CDS Law 2026 and Federal Decree‑Law No. 41 of 2024 (Art. 87), ensuring guardian consent and child‑safe protocols.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What does a positive Philadelphia chromosome result mean for my diagnosis?
A positive Philadelphia chromosome confirms the presence of the BCR‑ABL1 fusion gene, establishing a diagnosis of Philadelphia‑positive leukemia and guiding immediate initiation of targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy.
يعني وجود كروموسوم فيلادلفيا الإيجابي تأكيد وجود الجين BCR‑ABL1 الاندماجي، مما يثبت تشخيص اللوكيميا إيجابية فيلادلفيا ويوجه بدء العلاج الفوري بمثبطات التيروزين كيناز.
2. How is the bone marrow sample collected and is it painful?
A small bone marrow aspirate is drawn from the back of the hip bone under local anaesthesia by a certified hematologist; most patients feel pressure rather than sharp pain, and the procedure is completed in minutes.
يتم سحب عينة صغيرة من نخاع العظم من عظم الورك تحت تخدير موضعي بواسطة أخصائي أمراض دم معتمد؛ يشعر معظم المرضى بضغط بدلاً من ألم حاد، وتنتهي العملية في دقائق.
3. When will I receive my results and how are they interpreted?
Results are delivered within 7 working days; a specialist tele‑consultation will explain the karyotype findings, including any additional chromosomal abnormalities, and their impact on treatment planning.
يتم تسليم النتائج خلال 7 أيام عمل، وتقدم استشارة هاتفية مجانية لتفسير نتائج التنميط النووي، بما في ذلك أي شذوذات صبغية إضافية وتأثيرها على خطة العلاج.
