Zusammenfassung:Robertsonian translocations were observed in two leukemia patients. The first case was a patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, who was found to have a rare Robertsonian translocation der(14;15)(q10;q10). The second case, a patient with acute myeloid leukemia, had multiple Robertsonian translocations: der(15)t(13;15)(q11.1;p11.1), der(14;22)(q10;q10), and dic(21;22)(p11.1;p11.1). Acquired multiple Robertsonian translocations have not been reported previously in leukemia.
