Myelodysplastic syndrome that progressed to acute myelomonocytic leukemia with eosinophilia showing peculiar chromosomal abnormality: a case report.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Myelodysplastic syndrome is a closely related group of acquired bone marrow disorders characterized by ineffective and dysplastic hematopoiesis. These clonal disorders frequently progress to acute leukemia. Acute myelomonocytic leukemia with eosinophilia is characterized by an increase in abnormal eosinophils in the bone marrow, relatively good clinical course and inv (16) chromosomal abnormality. We experienced one case of refractory anemia with excess blasts which progressed to refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation and finally to acute myelomonocytic leukemia with eosinophilia showing peculiar chromosomal abnormalities of der (1;7).

A Rare Case of Acute Myeloid Leukemia with Translocation (3:3) Presenting with Features of Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia
Background: Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with translocation (3,3) is a form of AML that may present de novo or may arise from a previous myelodysplastic syndrome. It is often associated with normal or elevated peripheral blood platelet count and increased bone marrow megakaryocytes with associated multi lineage dysplasia. A subset of patients present with hepatosplenomegaly while a few cases h...
متن کاملResponse to STI571 in chronic myelomonocytic leukemia with platelet derived growth factor beta receptor involvement: a new case report.
Based on its ability to inhibit the tyrosine kinase activity of ABL, as well as the c-kit and the Platelet Derived Growth Factor Receptor tyrosine kinases, the spectrum of diseases that may respond to STI571 is increasing. A recently recognized subgroup of myeloproliferative disorders/myelodysplastic syndromes (MPD/MDS) has a t(5;12)(q33;p13) with the activation of the gene for PDGFBR which enc...
متن کاملTEL gene is involved in myelodysplastic syndromes with either the typical t(5;12)(q33;p13) translocation or its variant t(10;12)(q24;p13).
A t(5;12)(q33;p13) translocation is a recurrent chromosome abnormality in a subgroup of myeloid malignancies with features of both myeloproliferative disorders and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs). The molecular consequence of a t(5;12) is a fusion between the platelet-derived growth factor receptor-B gene on chromosome 5 and a novel ETS-like gene, TEL, on chromosome 12. We report on three pati...
متن کاملPrognostically relevant breakdown of 123 patients with systemic mastocytosis associated with other myeloid malignancies.
The prognostic heterogeneity of the World Health Organization category of "systemic mastocytosis with associated clonal hematologic nonmast cell lineage disease" (SM-AHNMD) has not been systematically validated by primary data. Among 138 consecutive cases with SM-AHNMD, 123 (89%) had associated myeloid neoplasm: 55 (45%) myeloproliferative neoplasm (SM-MPN), 36 (29%) chronic myelomonocytic leuk...
متن کاملMyelodysplastic syndrome coexisting with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.
A 55 year old woman developed chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia (CMML) one year after she had been successfully treated for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). When the ALL relapsed the CMML remitted only to return with further remission of the ALL. A consistent chromosomal abnormality, t(4;11), was present during both CMML and ALL phases.
