Title Acute megakaryoblastic leukemia with acquired trisomy 21 and GATA1 mutations in phenotypically normal children.
URL
Abstract Text GATA1 mutations are found almost exclusively in children with myeloid proliferations related to Down syndrome (DS). Here, we report two phenotypically and cytogenetically normal children with acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL) whose blasts had both acquired trisomy 21 and GATA1 mutation. Patient 1 was diagnosed with transient abnormal myelopoiesis in the neonatal period. Following spontaneous improvement of the disease, leukemic blasts increased 7 months later. He received less intensive chemotherapy, and he is now 6 years old in complete remission. Patient 2 was diagnosed with AMKL at the age of 18 months. Although he received intensive chemotherapy and a cord blood transplantation, he died without gaining remission. In both cases, trisomy 21 and GATA1 mutation were detected only in leukemic blasts, but not in germline samples. Based on a literature review, we identified reports describing 14 non-DS AMKL with GATA1 mutation and acquired trisomy 21. Of those, 12 cases were diagnosed during the neonatal period, whereas the remaining 2 cases were diagnosed at the age of 22 and 31 months, respectively.These cases suggest that GATA1 mutation may cooperate with the additional chromosome 21 in developing myeloid proliferations even in non-DS patients.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
