Values refer to the prevalence of cases with PTPN11 or RAS gene mutations within each subtype and entire cohort.

Significance of the Fisher exact test for the independence of distributions of PTPN11 or RAS mutations across ALL immunophenotypes. The comparison of the distributions of PTPN11 and RAS mutations across B-cell precursors ALL immunophenotypes showed a statistically significant difference (P = .026, Fisher exact test).

AML patients were grouped according to the FAB classification.

§

One case showed mixed leukemic cell population expressing CD10+/CD33 (65% of cells) and CD10/CD33+ (35% of cells).
