Abstract

Specific structural chromosome abnormalities are connected with different types of acute myeloid leukemia and have proved to be helpful in establishing the precise diagnosis and the prognosis of disease. For FAB M6 subtype, many karyotype changes have been described and classified as minor and major karyotype abnormalities (MIKA and MAKA) [1]. Here we report the combination of two clonal chromosome changes in a child with M6 AML.
