t(2;2;21;8)(p21;q37;q22;q22), a novel four-way complex translocation involving variant t(8;21) in case of acute myeloid leukemia : a case report and literature review
This report presents a case of AML with RUNX1::RUNX1T1, wherein the karyotype revealed t(2;2;21;8)(p21;q37;q22;q22), representing the first instance of a variant t(8;21) involving both chromosomes 2. The combination of routine karyotype analysis and fluorescence in situ hybridization proves to be an effective method for identifying complex translocations of t(8;21).
