Deletion of chromosome arm 15q in a case of minimally differentiated hypoplastic AML-M0.
2008
Abstract Deletion of the long arm of chromosome 15 is known as a rare but recurrent chromosomal abnormality in myeloid malignancies. We report a novel case of minimally differentiated hypoplastic acute myeloid leukemia (AML M0) in a patient who initially had a normal karyotype, but clonal interstitial deletion of chromosome 15, del(15)(q11.2q22), coincided with increment of leukemic cells a year later. We also summarize 18 published cases with myeloid malignancies and this chromosomal abnormality.
