| pubmed-article:7796356 | pubmed:abstractText | There is currently considerable interest in the cytogenetic analysis of leukemia. The improvement of banding techniques has made it possible to rather precisely identify deletion, translocation, inversions, and other structural chromosome abnormalities. Specific recurring chromosome abnormalities associated with distinctive morphologic features are thus increasingly recognized in acute nonlymphocytic leukemia. For example, uneven geographic distribution of nonrandom specific chromosome aberrations has been reported. We herein report the results of chromosome studies on 30 Chinese patients with de novo acute nonlymphocytic leukemia. | lld:pubmed |
