Abstract

Three patients with myeloproliferative disorders, two acute myeloid leukemias and one chronic myelocytic leukemia, were found to present a t(6;9)(p21;q33) as the sole anomaly in the leukemic cells. It is likely that this translocation is to be added to the steadily growing list of characteristic chromosome changes in human malignancy.
