Philadelphia chromosome positive chronic myeloid leukemia with 5q deletion at diagnosis

Abstract: Background Although, molecular genetic analyses became more and more important to guide therapy decisions in leukemia, banding cytogenetic analysis has retained its vital role in diagnosis and monitoring of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), by quick and easy enabling identification of pathognomonic Philadelphia chromosome (Ph). Case presentation A 45 year old female presented with characteristic hematological features of CML in chronic phase; cytogen… Show more

“…In the case of children (CML), it makes up 15% of all instances of myeloid leukemia. Its prevalence rises with age, reaching 1.2 instances per million annually in teenagers [ 2 ]. The Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) is what distinguishes CML from other myeloproliferative neoplasms; however, albeit rarely, the Ph+ may also be seen in MPN other than CML [ 3 ].…”

“…Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a hematopoietic stem cell disorder characterized by the accumulation of myeloid cells in the blood ( Ning et al, 2020 ). CML is highly associated with chromosomal translocations, as the translocation between chromosomes 9 and 22 t (9; 22) (q34; q11), known as Philadelphia chromosome (Ph+), which is found in 95% of diagnosed cases ( Haidary et al, 2021 ). The Ph + encodes for chimeric protein BCR-ABL1, which is a constitutively active tyrosine kinase (TK) linked to cellular growth, survival, and cell differentiation in CML ( Amarante-Mendes et al, 2022 ).…”

“…Over the past half century, there has been significant advances in the field of molecular biology that has led to better understanding of the pathophysiology of leukemias, including acute lymphoblastic leukemia [ 2 ]. Where in 1970s, the diagnosis of acute leukemias was based on clinical and morphological features of the blast cells, in today's era, the molecular‐cytogenetic modalities are used not only for diagnostic purposes but also for disease prognostication [ 3 , 4 ]. Next‐generation sequencing and epigenetic studies are now being utilized to identify the molecular markers that can be targeted during therapy [ 1 ].…”
