Philadelphia (Ph)-positive chromosome or Ph translocation has been recognized in 90-95 chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cases worldwide. However, only 5-8% CML patients show complex variant translocations. In the present study, hematological tests for a 47-year-old female CML patient were performed to determine the hemoglobin, platelets and total leukocyte values. A FISH test was carried out to recognize the gene fusion, and a cytogenetic analysis was performed. The hematological results showed an increase in WBC (414000/mm) and a decrease in hemoglobin (8.9 mg/dl), indicating the anemic condition in the CML patient. Furthermore, cytogenetic karyotyping results showed 46,XX,t(6;9;22)(p21;q34;q11) and positive for Ph chromosome. In conclusion, in the present study, we report a rare three-way complex variant translocation in a CML patient.
在全球范围内,90% - 95%的慢性髓性白血病(CML)病例中可检测到费城(Ph)阳性染色体或Ph易位。然而,仅有5% - 8%的CML患者表现出复杂的变异易位。在本研究中,对一名47岁女性CML患者进行了血液学检测,以确定血红蛋白、血小板和白细胞总数。进行了荧光原位杂交(FISH)检测以识别基因融合,并进行了细胞遗传学分析。血液学结果显示白细胞计数升高(414000/mm),血红蛋白降低(8.9 mg/dl),表明该CML患者存在贫血状况。此外,细胞遗传学核型分析结果显示为46,XX,t(6;9;22)(p21;q34;q11),且Ph染色体呈阳性。总之,在本研究中,我们报告了一例CML患者中罕见的三向复杂变异易位。
