The recurring chromosomal 9;11 translocation [t(9;11) (p22;q23)] typically is associated with acute monoblastic leukemia, but a number of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia also have been reported to have the t(9;11). To investigate the cell lineage in the latter cases, we analyzed DNA from the leukemic cells of an 8-year-old girl with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and a t(9;11) for rearrangements of the immunoglobulin and T-cell receptor genes. Rearrangements of both immunoglobulin heavy-chain loci and of one lambda light-chain gene were detected, as well as deletions affecting both alleles of the kappa light-chain genes; T-cell receptor genes were in germline configuration. These results provide further evidence that the 9;11 translocation is not limited to myeloid lineage leukemia and may be observed in acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
