چکیده

Fluroscent in situ hybridization analysis indicated presence of t(12;21)(p13;q22) translocation and near-tetraploidy in a case who 11-year-old boy and diagnosed with B precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Although, some studies suggest good prognostic effect of translocation t(12;21) (p13;q22), there were very little data regarding the prognostic effect of Near-tetraploidy. Here we discussed the prognostic relevance of both t(12;21)(p13;q22) translocation and near tetraplody in Pre-B ALL.

t(10;16)(q22;p13) and MORF-CREBBP fusion is a recurrent event in acute myeloid leukemia.

Recently, it was shown that t(10;16)(q22;p13) fuses the MORF and CREBBP genes in a case of childhood acute myeloid leukemia (AML) M5a, with a complex karyotype containing other rearrangements. Here, we report a new case with the MORF-CREBBP fusion in an 84-year-old patient diagnosed with AML M5b, in which the t(10;16)(q22;p13) was the only cytogenetic aberration. This supports that this is a re...

New recurring chromosomal translocations in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

We identified seven new recurring translocations among 483 cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with adequate chromosome banding studies. Four were apparently balanced [t(1;3)(p34;p21), t(7;9)(p15;p23-p24), t(12;13)(p13;q14), t(17;19)(q22;p13)], while three were unbalanced with the formation of a dicentric chromosome [dic(7;9)(p13;p11), dic(7;12)(p11;p12), and dic(12;17)(p11;p11-p12)]. O...

Adult B lymphoblastic leukaemia/lymphoma with hypodiploidy (-9) and a novel chromosomal translocation t(7;12)(q22;p13) presenting with severe eosinophilia – case report and review of literature

Patients suffering from adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia are acutely ill and present most commonly with fever, pallor, bleeding, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly and presence of lymphoblasts in the peripheral blood and bone marrow. We describe a rare presentation of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, in a young adult male who had vague and minimal symptoms with mild splenomegaly. There was seve...

The incidence peaks of the childhood acute leukemias reflect specific cytogenetic aberrations.

The correlation between age and karyotype was studied in 1425, 0 to 14.9 years old children who were diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or acute myeloblastic leukemia. Almost 80% of the non-Down B-cell precursor ALL cases in the 2 to 7 years frequency peak group who had aberrant cytogenetic results had either a high-hyperdiploid clone (51 to 61 chromosomes) or a translocation t(1...

Acute myeloid leukemia with t(10;17)(p13;q12) chromosome translocation: a case report and literature review.

More than 50% of adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) carry chromosome abnormalities, like t(8;21)(q22;q22), t(15;17), t(8;21)inv(16) or t(16;16). t(10;17) translocation was very rare in AML. There are only 10 such cases reported in the literature. Here, we describe a case of acute myeloid leukemia with t(10;17)(p13;q12) chromosome translocation, who had complete remission after one...
