Most of IgH rearrangement was characterized by one or two specific bands while some had more than two. Rearrangement of TcRγgene appeared as one specific band. A slight difference in number, size and lightness of bands was found among the patients. 4 different kinds of rearrangement were observed in the detection of IgH rearrangement in combination with TcRγgene.
