چکیده
Translocation t(2p;3q) is a rare but recurrent finding in myeloid disorders. We present the first case of primary myelofibrosis with t(2;3)(p21;q26) as the sole chromosomal anomaly. The comparison with the 11 other previously published myeloid-associated t(2p;3q) cases confirms that this nonrandom translocation involves a pluripotent stem cell and is associated with a poor prognosis.
