Over the last decade molecular diagnostics technology has developed dramatically from the most laborious, time- consuming southern blot methodology through the revolution of polymerase chain reaction PCR technology to the most reliable, fast, and contamination free molecular analyzer, the real-time quantitative-PCR. The Section of Hematology, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center has shared this experience during the last 10 years with more than 6,546 samples submitted for the analysis of different gene rearrangements, fusion gene transcripts and gene mutations including Ig heavy chain gene rearrangement for B-cell malignancies, T-cell receptor gamma chain gene rearrangement for T-cell malignancies, BCR/ABL-P210 and P190 fusion gene transcripts, for chronic myeloid leukemia and Philadelphia positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia, PML/RARalpha fusion gene for promyelocytic leukemia, AML1/ETO for acute myeloid leukemia AML-M2 with t8;21, CBFB/MYH11 for AML M4E0 with inv 16, BCL-2 for follicular lymphoma, and BCL-1 for mantle cell lymphoma. Hence, most molecular assays are qualitative in nature, quantitative assays are deemed necessary in the monitoring and follow-up of minimal residual disease in leukemia and lymphoma, and proved in our experience to serve as an essential tool to confirm complete remission CR post-chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation, and to detect signs of early relapse for proper clinical intervention. In this manuscript, we retrospectively review our experience in molecular hematology and propose our recommended guidelines at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center.
