der(9;18)(p10;q10)
| Identity |
 | |
| +9,der(9; 18)(p10;q10) (G-banding). | |
| Clinics and Pathology |
| Disease | BCR-ABL negative chronic myeloproliferative disorders (CMPD). |
| Epidemiology | Occasional occurrence: 5 cases of polycythemia vera (PV) and one case of therapy associated AML (t-AML) after ET were reported so far. |
| Clinics | 2/5 PV cases showed conversion of PV to post-polycythemic myelofibrosis. |
| Prognosis | Probably associated with progression or leukemic transformation of the CMPD. |
| Cytogenetics |
| Cytogenetics Morphological | Unbalanced translocation between chromosomes 9 and 18 leading to trisomy of 9p and monosomy of 18p. |
 | |
| +9,der(9;18)(p10;q10) (chromosome painting, WCP#9 (red) + WCP#18 (green)). | |
| Additional anomalies | Sole abnormality in most cases; balanced translocations or complex aberrant karyotypes were reported as additional abnormalities. |
| Genes involved and Proteins |
| Note | Genes involved are unknown. Gain of 9p might play a role for gain of function of the JAK2 gene on 9p24 which codes for the JAK2 nonreceptor kinase. |
| To be noted |
| Additional cases are needed to delineate the epidemiology of this rare entity: you are welcome to submit a paper to our new Case Report section. | |
