A new translocation t(1;4;11) in congenital acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (acute myeloblastic leukemia)

Hum Genet. 1987 May;76(1):106-8. doi: 10.1007/BF00283060.

Abstract

A new translocation t(1;11;4)(1pter----1p32::11q23----11q13::4p16--- -4qter) was found in the peripheral blood of a patient with congenital acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML). It was concluded that this translocation may represent a new mutation, which caused the leukemia with very high leukocytosis, hepatosplenomegaly, leukemic infiltration of the majority of the organs, and a very poor prognosis.
