ABSTRACT

In recent years there are more and more evidences for a hereditary factor in malignant lymphoproliferative disorders. Various lymphoid tumors are diagnosed in blood relatives. This is most frequently observed in chronic lymphocytic leukemia: 13.3 % vs. 8.8 % in non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and 5.9 % in Hodgkin’s lymphoma. This paper presents two case reports of chronic lymphocytic leukemia in blood relatives (male siblings). Besides, in one of them the efficacy of targeted therapy with ibrutinib is estimated.

Keywords: chronic lymphocytic leukemia, heredity, ibrutinib, refractoriness, relapse.
