چکیده
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.

Hereditary duplication of proximal chromosome 1q (q11q22) in a patient with T lymphoblastic lymphoma/leukaemia: a family study using G banding and comparative genomic hybridisation.
Aberrations of the long arm of chromosome 1 have been linked to many diseases, both in acquired somatic neoplastic conditions and constitutional genetic disorders. These abnormalities include structural rearrangements and various deletions or amplifications affecting whole chromosome arms or specific regions. Gain of chromosome 1q has been reported in many solid tumours, including invasive carc...
