t(8;13) (p11;q12) translocation in a myeloproliferative disorder associated with a T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Br J Haematol. 1994 Apr;86(4):876-8. doi: 10.1111/j.1365-2141.1994.tb04847.x.

Abstract

An unusual cytogenetic translocation, t(8;13) (p11;q12), is described in a patient presenting with a CML-like myeloproliferative disorder associated with a high-grade T-cell lymphoma. Evidence is presented suggesting that the breakpoint region in the translocation involves a site implicated in both the T cell malignancy and the abnormal granulocyte proliferation.
