چکیده

We describe a novel case of simultaneous karyotypic abnormalities of isochromosome 17q and trisomy 14 in a patient with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in leukemic transformation. A 66-yr-old Korean man was admitted to Severance Hospital for evaluation of pancytopenia. On the basis of bone marrow studies at 3 different stages, he was diagnosed with MDS in leukemic transformation. Chromosome karyotyping repeatedly showed the same main clonal abnormalities, including isochromosome 17q and trisomy 14. Isochromosome 17q and trisomy 14 have each been reported as rare, nonrandom recurrent chromosomal abnormalities in patients with MDS showing a poor prognosis. To our knowledge, this is the first report of concurrent i(17)(q10) and trisomy 14 in a patient with MDS in leukemic transformation.

Concomitant isochromosome 17q and mutated SETBP1 in a myelodysplastic syndrome patient with a poor prognosis

We describe a novel case of simultaneous karyotypic abnormality of isochromosome 17q [i(17)(q10)/ i(17q)] and a molecular aberration of mutated SETBP1 in a myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patient with a poor prognosis. A 61-year-old Chinese man was admitted to the Hospital of Lanzhou University for evaluation of pancytopenia. Based on bone marrow studies, he was diagnosed with MDS-RCMD (2008 WHO...

Isochromosome 17q in Ph1-negative leukemia: a clinical, cytogenetic, and molecular study.

We report on eight patients who were 35 to 77 years old with an isochromosome 17q as the sole structural chromosomal anomaly. Additional numerical chromosomal changes were a trisomy 8 or 17 in two cases each and a trisomy 19 in one case. Five patients had myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) diagnosed according to the FAB nomenclature as chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) in two cases, refractory...

Myeloid Neoplasms with Isolated Isochromosome 17q: a yet to be Defined Entity

Myeloid neoplasms with isolated isochromosome 17q [MN i(17q)] has been described as a distinct entity with poor prognosis. However, literature reports show a considerable clinical and molecular heterogeneity. We describe a 58-year-old male patient who was diagnosed as refractory anemia with multilineage dysplasia and ringed sideroblasts with isolated i(17q). Though he initially responded well t...

Case report of isochromosome 17q in acute myeloid leukemia with myelodysplasia-related changes after treatment with a hypomethylating agent.

Isochromosome 17q is a relatively common karyotypic abnormality in medulloblastoma, gastric, bladder, and breast cancers. In myeloid disorders, it is observed during disease progression and evolution to acute myeloid leukemia in Philadelphia-positive chronic myeloid leukemia. It has been reported in rare cases of myelodysplastic syndrome, with an incidence of 0.4-1.57%. Two new agents have...

Myeloid neoplasms with isolated isochromosome 17q demonstrate a high frequency of mutations in SETBP1, SRSF2, ASXL1 and NRAS

Isolated isochromosome 17q, i(17q), accounts for less than 1% of myeloid neoplasms that are commonly classified as myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). We have shown previously that these cases have distinctive clinicopathologic features, a poor prognosis and absence of TP53 mutations. H...
