A new adult AML case with an extremely complex karyotype, remission and relapse combined with high hyperdiploidy of a normal chromosome set in secondary AML

ConclusionsTo the best of our knowledge, a comparable adult AML associated with such a CK, coexistence of 3q rearrangements with loss ofTP53 at diagnosis, and HH in secondary AML were not previously reported. Thus, the combination of the here seen chromosomal aberrations in adult primary AML seems to indicate for an adverse prognosis.
