Double 9;22 translocation with hyperdiploidy appearing in blastic transformation of chronic granulocytic leukemia. 1982

P Rajasekariah, and I Illes, and O M Garson

Chromosome studies in a 26-year-old female with Ph1-positive chronic granulocytic leukemia showed the development of both hyperdiploid and tetraploid cell lines in the blastic transformation phase. An additional 9;22 translocation and additional chromosomes No. 8, 11, 13 and 22 were found in the hyperdiploid cell line. This unusual finding suggests that the hyperdiploidy may have developed from misdivisions in the tetraploid cell line rather than by the more accepted mechanism of nondisjunction or selective endoreduplication from a diploid cell.

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.

D002871 Chromosome Banding Staining of bands, or chromosome segments, allowing the precise identification of individual chromosomes or parts of chromosomes. Applications include the determination of chromosome rearrangements in malformation syndromes and cancer, the chemistry of chromosome segments, chromosome changes during evolution, and, in conjunction with cell hybridization studies, chromosome mapping.

D000782 Aneuploidy The chromosomal constitution of cells which deviate from the normal by the addition or subtraction of CHROMOSOMES, chromosome pairs, or chromosome fragments. In a normally diploid cell (DIPLOIDY) the loss of a chromosome pair is termed nullisomy (symbol: 2N-2), the loss of a single chromosome is MONOSOMY (symbol: 2N-1), the addition of a chromosome pair is tetrasomy (symbol: 2N+2), the addition of a single chromosome is TRISOMY (symbol: 2N+1).
