| Abstract |
Chromosomal abnormalities are diagnostic and prognostic key factors in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, as they play a central role for risk stratification algorithms. High hyperdiploidy (HH), a rare cytogenetic abnormality seen commonly in elder male AML patients, is normally categorized under AML with complex karyotype (CK). Accordingly, patients with HH generally are associated with low remission rates and a short overall survival. Here we report a case of 21-year-old female, diagnosed with a de novo AML-M1 according to WHO classification and a CK at diagnosis. Cytogenetic, molecular cytogenetic approaches (standard fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), array-proven multicolor banding (aMCB)) and high resolution array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) analyses revealed a unique complex but still near diploid karyotype involving eleven chromosomes was identified. It included pentasomy 4, three yet unreported chromosomal aberrations t(1;2)(p35;p22), t(1;3)(p36.2;p26.2), and t(10;12)(p15.2;q24.11), and a combination of two cytogenetic events, yet unreported to appear in together, i.e. a reciprocal translocation t(1;3)(p36.2;p26.2) leading to EVI1/PRDM16 gene fusion, and monoallelic loss of tumor suppressor gene TP53. After successful chemotherapeutic treatment the patient experienced a relapse to AML-M1, and she developed secondary AML-M6 with tetraploidy and HH. Unfortunately, the young woman died 8.5 months after initial diagnosis. To the best of our knowledge, a comparable adult AML associated with such a CK, coexistence of 3q rearrangements with loss of TP53 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. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 September 2018.
All research outputs
#20,532,290
of 23,102,082 outputs
Outputs from BMC Hematology
#66
of 82 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#292,040
of 335,281 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Hematology
#7
of 11 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,102,082 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 82 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.8. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 335,281 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 11 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
