Clinical and hematologic characteristics in acute leukemia with 11q23 translocations.
We studied the clinical, morphological, and immunologic characteristics of 11 patients with 11q translocation-associated acute leukemia. There were three patients with t(9;11)(p22;q23), one with a variant of the t(9;11), three with t(11;19)(q23;p13), two with t(1;11)(p32;q23), one with t(10;11)(p15;q22or23), and one with t(11;17) (q23;q25). The breakpoints in chromosome 11 clustered in band q23...
متن کاملFungal Infections in Pediatric Patients with Hematologic Malignancies
As the data on the epidemiology and outcome of fungal infections in children with hematologic cancer are limited especially in Iran, this study was aimed to delineate the epidemiologic features and outcome of fungal infections in this population. The medical records of all children with hematologic malignancies diagnosed with a fungal infection from 2005 to 2010 at a tertiary pediatric hospita...
متن کاملMolecular cytogenetic characterization of breakpoints in 19 patients with hematologic malignancies and 12p unbalanced translocations.
Structural rearrangements of the short arm of chromosome 12 are frequent cytogenetic findings in various hematologic malignancies. The ETV6 gene is the most common target for rearrangements in 12p13. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) investigations have shown that translocations of 12p other than t(12;21) are frequently accompanied by small interstitial deletions that include ETV6. Unba...
متن کاملExpression of EVI1 in myelodysplastic syndromes and other hematologic malignancies without 3q26 translocations.
The EVI1 gene encodes a zinc-finger, DNA-binding protein originally described as the transforming gene associated with a common ecotropic viral insertion site in myeloid leukemias. Previous studies demonstrated EVI1 expression in human leukemias in cases with 3q26 translocations, but not in normal blood or bone marrow. These studies also suggested an association between EVI1 expression and chro...
متن کاملHematologic Malignancies
Touch MEdical MEdia 43 Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable plasma cell disease that comprises 1 % of all cancers and 10 % of hematologic malignancies. It primarily affects older individuals—the median age at the moment of diagnosis is 70 years—and two-thirds of multiple myeloma patients are over 65 years of age when they are first diagnosed. The outcome of MM patients has significantly improv...
