Trisomy of group C in a myeloproliferative disorder. Report of case.

Evolution of Marginal Zone Lymphoma Towards Myeloproliferative Disorder: A Case Report

Report of a Case with Trisomy 9 Mosaicism

Trisomy 9 is a rare chromosome disorder with high neonatal mortality. It is often seen in mosaic form. Most patients who survive are severely mentally retarded. The main features of this syndrome are "bulbous" nose, microphthalmia, dislocated limbs, and other anomalies of skeletal, cardiac, genitourinary, and central nervous system. Most patients have developmental and cognitive impairment. Pat...

Transient neonatal myeloproliferative disorder without Down syndrome and detection of GATA1 mutation.

Transient myeloproliferative disorder is a form of self-limited leukemia that occurs almost exclusively in neonates with Down syndrome. The authors report an unusual case of a newborn without constitutional trisomy 21 who developed undifferentiated leukemia and subsequently achieved clinical and molecular remission without chemotherapy. Cytogenetics and molecular analysis have shown trisomy 21 ...

Low Frequency of C-MPL Gene Mutations in Iranian Patients with Philadelphia-Negative Myeloproliferative Disorders

Background Myeloproliferative disorders are a group of diseases characterized by increased proliferation of myeloid lineage. In addition to JAK2V617F mutation, several mutations in the c-MPL gene were described in patients with Philadelphia-negative chronic myeloproliferative disorders that could be important in the pathogenesis of diseases. The aim of present study was to investigate the fre...

Reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 8 and 9 in atypical chronic myeloid leukaemia.

A balanced translocation t(8;9) (p11;q34) was present in the peripheral blood, bone marrow, and spleen cells of a patient with Ph negative chronic myeloid leukaemia. Subsequent transformation into acute leukaemia was associated with the emergence of trisomy 8 and der(8)(8qter----cen----8p11::9q34----9qter). This is the third reported case of t(8;9) (p11;q34) and raises the question of the role ...
