Abstract

Cytogenetic abnormalities are rarely found in patients with juvenile chronic myelogenous leukemia (JCML). In patients with chromosomal abnormalities, chromosomes 7 and 8 are usually involved. A case of JCML with 47 XXX and a 46 XX karyotype is described and the literature is reviewed. To our knowledge, this is the first case ever to have been reported.

Keywords: juvenile chronic myeloid leukemia, chromosome, XXX karyotype
