Chronic myelogenous leukemia with a Philadelphia chromosome resulting from a complex translocation (2; 9; 22), following an undifferentiated acute leukemia. 1983

N Smadja, and J James, and M Krulik, and R Zittoun, and J Debray

This case report concerns a patient with acute leukemia considered at diagnosis to be undifferentiated. Unfortunately, because of the failure of the culture, a cytogenetic evaluation was not possible at that stage. A full remission was induced, but 17 months after the onset of the disease the patient developed chronic myelogenous leukemia. The karyotypes prepared at that time and during the follow-up revealed the presence of a Philadelphia chromosome (Ph1) in all examined cells. This Ph1 resulted from a complex translocation involving chromosomes No. 2, 9, and 22.

D001853 Bone Marrow The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.
