Abstract

A patient with Philadelphia chromosome Ph¹-positive chronic granulocytic leukemia (CGL) developed an acute transformation associated with a hemorrhagic diathesis and bone marrow infiltration by hypergranular promyelocytes and blasts. Cytogenetic analysis of bone marrow metaphase cells at transformation showed a t(15;17) superimposed upon the Ph¹-positive cell line. These findings suggest a critical relationship between the t(15;17) and arrest of myeloid leukemic cell differentiation at the promyelocyte stage.
