“…Abnormal karyotypes have been described in 50 % of adult AML patients, with t(8;21)(q22;q22) approximately in 6 % adults with AML-M2 and associated with good prognosis [1][2][3]. Del(9q), described in AML is a rare uncommon karyotypic abnormality reported in very few patients in literature world wide.…”

“…Loss of such a small segment has not been reported earlier and possibly the genes in this region (not yet defined) may be critical for leukemogenesis in the absence of AML1 ETO rearrangement suggesting the operation of another pathway. AML normal cytogenetics involves testing for prognostic indicators FLT3, NPM1, CEBPA mutations [1][2][3]. Data on status of FLT3/NPM1/CEBPA mutations in the context of del 9q as the sole abnormality/in association with t(8;21)/ other karyotypic abnormalities with reference to loss of various segments in del 9q is sparse.…”

“…[3] Most AML have specific non-random, clonal chromosomal abnormalities associated with morphologically and clinically distinct subsets of the disease such as the well known 8;21 translocation in AML M2, 15;17 translocation in acute promyelocytic leukemia-M3 etc., with prognostic, and therapeutic importance. [14] Here we report a case of AML-M2 having a unique chromosomal abnormality the 11;18 translocation with new breakpoints.…”
