M. Suenaga et al., TRISOMY-4 IN A CASE OF ACUTE MYELOGENOUS LEUKEMIA ACCOMPANIED BY SUBCUTANEOUS SOFT-TISSUE TUMORS - REPORT OF A CASE AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE, Cancer genetics and cytogenetics, 71(1), 1993, pp. 71-75
We report a patient with acute myelogenous leukemia [AML, French-Ameri
can-British classification (FAB) M2] with trisomy 4, who developed sub
cutaneous soft tissue tumors at the time leukemia was diagnosed. A rev
iew of the literature on AML with trisomy 4 suggests a relation betwee
n trisomy 4 and tumor formation of leukemic cells.
