Abstract

Objective: To report 2 rare cases of 8p11 meyloproliferative syndrome cured by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Methods: The clinical and laboratory features of 2 cases of 8p11 meyloproliferative syndrome were summarized, including the diagnosis and treatment process of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Results: Patient 1 was presented with bilateral cervical lymphadenopathy and leukocytosis. The pathology of bone marrow showed extremely hyperplasia. The cytogenetic analysis showed a 46, XY, (8;13)(p11;q12) karyotype. The biopsy of the lymph node was peripheral T-cell lymphoma, unspecified. Patient 2 was presented with extensive lymphadenopathy with abnormal hemogram, which was leuekcytosis and thrombpenia. The bone marrow was hypercellular. The cytogenetic analysis on the bone marrow cells showed a translocation of t(8;9) (p11;q32). The CEP110-FGFR1 fusion transcript was detected by RT-PCR. The biopsy of the lymph node was T lymphoblastic lymphoma. These two patients received human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, remained disease-free and survived 16 years and 6 years after transplantation, respectively.

Conclusion: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the curative therapy for 8p11 meyloproliferative syndrome.
