We present clinical and cytogenetic data on a 7-year-old female child with partial trisomy for 9p22→9pter as a result of a maternal balanced reciprocal translocation. Her karyotype was ascertained as 46,XX,dec(4)t(4;9)(q35; p22)mat. The father had a normal karyotype, while the mother had an apparently balanced translocation involving chromosomes 4 and 9 [46,XX,t(4;9)(q35;p22)]. This case will b...

We report a novel chromosome translocationt(2;5)(p23;q35) or its variant. t(2;5;13)(p23;q35;q12)-in 3 patients with peripheral T-celI lymphoma. All 3 were female children who had peripheral lymphadenopathy without organomegaly and underwent complete remission with or without chemotherapy. Their tumors were characterized histologically by predominant large cells, at times showing phagocytosis, a...
