pubmed:abstractText |
From 5-8% of Philadelphia (Ph) positive patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) show variant translocations in which at least a third chromosome in addition to 9q34 and 22q11 is involved. The formation mechanisms and clinical significance of variant Ph translocations are still unclear. The BCR/ABL chimeric gene encoding for chimeric proteins is always present and maps on the 22q- regardless of the type of translocation. We studied two apparently Ph negative CML patients with unusual karyotypes both showing a typical b3a2 rearrangement.
