t(1;3)(p36;p21) is a recurrent reciprocal translocation found in a subset of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)/acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) characterized by trilineage dysplasia, especially dysmegakaryopoiesis and poor prognosis. In the literature, some authors have suggested that this recurrent translocation is closely associated with prior chemotherapy including alkylating agents in various hematologic malignancies. We identified a recurring translocation, t(1;3)(p36;p21), in our patient with MDS/AML(M2), although she had not been given any kind of treatment previously.

Keywords: Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), translocation, chromosome 1, chromosome 3.

(1;3)(p36;p21) sitogenetik bulgusu, Myelodisplastik Sendrom (MDS)/Akut Myeloid Lösemi (AML) olgularının özellikle dismegakaryopoez ve kötü prognoz ile seyreden bir kısmında gözlenen tekrarlayan bir resiprokal translokasyondur. Bazı yazarlar bu translokasyonun değişik hematolojik kanserlerde alkilleyici ajanlarla yapılan kemoterapiyle sıkı bir ilişkisi olduğunu ileri sürmüşlerdir. Bu çalışmada, daha önce kemoterapi uygulanmamış t(1;3)(p36;p21) bulgulu bir MDS/AML(M2) olgusu sunulmaktadır.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Myelodisplastik Sendrom (MDS), Akut Myeloid Lösemi (AML), translokasyon, 1. kromozom, 3. kromozom
