TL;DRAbstract
Objective To report a case of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) blastic transformation into acute myelogenous leukemia with rare atypical hypodiploid t (1; 9; 22) complex chromosome abnormalities, and to analyze its clinical and laboratory characteristics. Methods A 47-year-old man was referred to our hospital due to cough and high fever in February 2010. We collected and analyzed the patient's clinical materials, and performed chromosomal karyotype analysis with R-banding and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Results The patient demonstrated typical clinical and laboratory characteristics of blastic crisis of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML-BC) and displayed rare atypical hypodiploid t (1; 9; 22) complex chromosome abnormalities. Meanwhile, the disease was rapidly progressive, with poor response to imatinib and had short overall survival. Conclusions CML-BC patients with hypodiploidy complex chromosome abnormalities are in high risk. They may show drug-resistance to imatin
