On the Xq13 breakpoint: clinical and cytogenetic observations in a patient with acute myelogenous leukemia

Acta Haematologica
M SessaregoF Ajmar

Abstract

Cytogenetic study in a case of acute myelogenous leukemia revealed the presence of two identical dicentric marker chromosomes derived from an X with Xq13 breakpoints. Clinical and cytochemical findings suggest that the patient was affected by idiopathic acquired sideroblastic anemia before the acute leukemia.

Anemia

Anemia develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells. Anemia of inflammation (AI, also called anemia of chronic disease) is a common, typically normocytic, normochromic anemia that is caused by an underlying inflammatory disease. Here is the latest research on anemia.

Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disease with approximately 20,000 cases per year in the United States. AML also accounts for 15-20% of all childhood acute leukemias, while it is responsible for more than half of the leukemic deaths in these patients. Here is the latest research on this disease.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.
