t(5;12)(q31;p12) A clinical entity with features of both myeloid leukemia and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia

We report two patients with a myeloproliferative disorder (Philadelphia chromosome-negative chronic myeloid leukemia) and t(5;12)(q31;p12). Until now, only three cases of a translocation (5;12)(q31;p12) have been reported. All investigators had problems classifying their patient's disease into...

Zusammenfassung:We report two patients with a myeloproliferative disorder (Philadelphia chromosome-negative chronic myeloid leukemia) and t(5;12)(q31;p12). Until now, only three cases of a translocation (5;12)(q31;p12) have been reported. All investigators had problems classifying their patient's disease into one of the well-defined entities of either MPD or myelodysplastic disorders. We postulate that this translocation may represent a subgroup of patients with features of both chronic myeloid leukemia and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMMoL).
