Primary myelodysplastic syndrome with complex chromosomal rearrangements in a patient with Klinefelter's syndrome.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A patient with Klinefelter's syndrome and diabetes mellitus was diagnosed as having myelodysplasia. Cytogenetic analysis of the peripheral blood and the bone marrow cells confirmed the presence of a constitutional 47,XXY chromosome complement. In addition, complex karyotypic abnormalities were present.

Although aplastic anemia (AA) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) are separate entities with different management, distinction between the two can be difficult on morphological basis due to hypocellularity of bone marrow. MDS is one of the serious complications of AA. Karyotyping is definitive in the diagnosis of MDS. Better and robust investigations like 18F-Fluoro-deoxy-Glucose Posi...

Background: Myelodysplastic syndrome is a mixed clonal disorder of bone marrow progenitor cells. Understanding the pattern of the different lineage-specific, immature, and mature markers in myelodysplastic syndrome will help in setting-up the frame of reference to diagnose. Patients and Methods: We compared 60 bone marrow samples from 30 newly-diagnosed patients with myelodysplastic syndrome ...
متن کاملFrequent chromatin rearrangements in myelodysplastic syndromes--what stands behind?
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) represent a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of clonal haematopoietic diseases characterized by a short survival and high rate of transformation to acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). In spite of this variability, MDS is associated with typical recurrent non-random cytogenetic defects. Chromosomal abnormalities are detected in the malignant bone-marrow c...
متن کاملThe t(11;20)(p15;q11) chromosomal translocation associated with therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome results in an NUP98-TOP1 fusion.
The NUP98 gene is involved in 3 distinct chromosomal rearrangements, t(7;11)(p15;p15), t(2;11)(q31;p15), and inv(11)(p15q22); all of these NUP98 rearrangements have been identified in the malignant cells of patients with therapy-related acute myelogenous leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome (t-AML/MDS). Here we report the cloning and characterization of a t(11;20)(p15;q11) translocation from pa...
