A 4-year-old female with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) was found to have a variant form of the 15;17 translocation, which is diagnostic of APL. The karyotype of the malignant cells was 47,XX,t(1;11)(q25;q21),t(1;17)(p36;q21), + 8. This case is additional evidence that the breakpoint of #17 at q21 is the characteristic chromosomal aberration of APL. The present case is also unusual because of the young age of the patient.
一名4岁急性早幼粒细胞白血病(APL)女性患者被发现存在15;17易位的变异形式,这是APL的诊断依据。恶性细胞的核型为47,XX,t(1;11)(q25;q21),t(1;17)(p36;q21), + 8。该病例进一步证明17号染色体q21处的断点是APL的特征性染色体畸变。该病例也很不寻常,因为患者年龄很小。
