Abstract:
We report a case of chronic myelogenous leukemia displaying a variant Philadelphia translocation t(11;22)(q25;q11.2). Breakpoint 11q25 has not previously been reported. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and fluorescence in-situ hybridization demonstrated the BCR/ABL rearrangement.
