Acute lymphoblastic leukemia was diagnosed in an 11-year-old girl with mild signs of Down's syndrome. She was known since birth to have a constitutional mosaicism (46,XX/47,XX,+21c). At initial diagnosis of acute leukemia, additional chromosome changes were found in bone marrow blasts: hyperdiploidy > 50, with a structural abnormality. She was treated with a standard chemotherapeutic protocol, and has remained in complete remission for more than 3 years. The constitutional mosaicism evolved toward normalization year after year in the blood and under the effect of chemotherapy in the bone marrow.

D004314 Down Syndrome A chromosome disorder associated either with an extra CHROMOSOME 21 or an effective TRISOMY for chromosome 21. Clinical manifestations include HYPOTONIA, short stature, BRACHYCEPHALY, upslanting palpebral fissures, epicanthus, Brushfield spots on the iris, protruding tongue, small ears, short, broad hands, fifth finger clinodactyly, single transverse palmar crease, and moderate to severe INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY. Cardiac and gastrointestinal malformations, a marked increase in the incidence of LEUKEMIA, and the early onset of ALZHEIMER DISEASE are also associated with this condition. Pathologic features include the development of NEUROFIBRILLARY TANGLES in neurons and the deposition of AMYLOID BETA-PROTEIN, similar to the pathology of ALZHEIMER DISEASE.
