Clinics and Pathology

Disease

myeloid disorders: MDS in more than half cases, AML in 1/4 ofcases, chronic myeloproliferative syndrome (atypical CML); exceptionally:lymphoproliferations; therefore, only trisomy 14 solely in myeloidmalignanies is herein described

Phenotype stem cell origin

MDS: RA, RAEB±T mainly; AML: M1, M2, M4;atypical CML: with dysplastic features

Epidemiology

median age 60-65 yrs (range: 4-89 yrs); sex ratio: 4M/3F

Clinics

no history of carcinogen exposure of note; blood data: plateletscount: 130 X 109/l; monocytosis in half cases

Cytology

all FAB subtypes of MDS can be found; atypical CMLcases present with dysplastic features; non-lobulated megakaryocytes areoften found

Prognosis

survival < 2yrs in most cases; +14 do not seem to bear a distinctprognosis

Cytogenetics

Cytogenetics morphological

most often (90% of cases) in mosaic with normal cells

Cytogenetics molecular

chromosome painting (although +14 detection attemptsare, so far, not relevant)

Additional anomalies

none, at least in the sub-clone with +14 solely, bythat very fact; most often none in karyotype follow-up

Variants

may be found as i(14q)

Genes Involved and Proteins

Note
genes involved are unknown
