We report the clinical presentation and the morphological, immunophenotypic, cytogenetic and molecular genetic characteristics of a 14·1/2‐year‐old boy who had French–American–British (FAB) type M1 acute non‐lymphocytic (ANLL) leukaemia with a common T‐ALL immunological phenotype, with no myeloid associated antigen, either on the membrane or in the cytoplasm. ALL‐directed induction therapy induced complete remission.
