Abstract
Introduction: Jumping translocations are rare cytogenetic events in hematologic malignancies, involving nonreciprocal translocation of a donor chromosome onto two or more recipient chromosomes.
Case presentation: In this paper, we report the first-ever case of a jumping translocation involving the long arm of chromosome 3 in a patient with Mantle Cell Lymphoma. The basic clone had the translocation t(11;14)(q13;q32) and a der(13)t(3;13)(q12;p11) and the three subclones had an additional jumping translocation, involving the translocation of 3q12 onto recipient chromosomes 14p, 15p and der(14)t(11;14), thus resulting in partial trisomy and tetrasomy 3q.
Conclusion: Although the underlying mechanism for the formation of jumping translocations is not well understood, their presence is usually associated with poor prognosis and clonal evolution and additional data are needed for their better clinical management.
期刊介绍:
During the last decades, ''Cytogenetic and Genome Research'' has been the leading forum for original reports and reviews in human and animal cytogenetics, including molecular, clinical and comparative cytogenetics. In recent years, most of its papers have centered on genome research, including gene cloning and sequencing, gene mapping, gene regulation and expression, cancer genetics, comparative genetics, gene linkage and related areas. The journal also publishes key papers on chromosome aberrations in somatic, meiotic and malignant cells. Its scope has expanded to include studies on invertebrate and plant cytogenetics and genomics. Also featured are the vast majority of the reports of the International Workshops on Human Chromosome Mapping, the reports of international human and animal chromosome nomenclature committees, and proceedings of the American and European cytogenetic conferences and other events. In addition to regular issues, the journal has been publishing since 2002 a series of topical issues on a broad variety of themes from cytogenetic and genome research.
