| pubmed-article:10549268 | pubmed:abstractText | This paper presents the results of a cytogenetic analysis in an 11-year-old boy with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The investigation was performed on slides obtained from short-term culture of lymph node cells. The analyses revealed an abnormal clone with loss of Y, gain of an X chromosome, t(3;22), trisomy 11, and three cytogenetically-related subclones with jumping translocations involving 11q13 as the common breakpoint region. This region is an unusual site of chromosome breakage in jumping translocations, and has not been reported thus far. Contrary to most published reports, the jumping translocation in our patient is associated with long survival. | lld:pubmed |
