Article Synopsis
  • The translocation t(9;22)(q34;q11) and its associated fusion transcripts are key indicators of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), but atypical presentations can complicate diagnosis.
  • While most CML patients have common fusion transcripts e13a2 or e14a2, about 5% have rare ones like e6a2, which is linked to more aggressive disease.
  • In a report of two challenging cases, the e6a2 fusion transcript was successfully identified using advanced testing, and treatment with nilotinib, a second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor, showed effectiveness in one patient.
