The present report concerns the clinical and cytogenetic findings in a liveborn girl with trisomy for the long arm of chromosome 20. She was the unbalanced product of a maternal t(18;20)(q23.2;q13.1) translocation. Our case is compared to the 3 previous reports of trisomy 20q associated with telomeric translocation. Adenosine deaminase dosage falls in the normal range and confirms the exclusion of the ADA locus from the region extending distally to 20q13.1.

partial tandem duplication (PTD) involves intragenic duplications and has been associated with poorer prognosis. In this study, we evaluated PTD in 1277 patients with hematological malignancies using optical genome mapping (OGM). PTD was detected in 35 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (7%), 5 patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) (2.

Various aggressive lymphomas entities have been associated with immunodeficiency. To provide further evidence that also MYC-negative high-grade B-cell (formerly Burkitt-like) lymphoma with 11q aberrations comprises an immunodeficiency-related subtype, we here conducted a comprehensive pathological and genetic workup of a 25-year-old patient with this type of lymphoma and simultaneous papillary renal cell carcinoma. The patient developed both malignancies following extensive childhood immunosuppression and a kidney transplant.

Background: The karyotype is a major determinant of prognosis in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Details of the cytogenetic profile of MDS in South Asia are limited because cytogenetic services are not widely available.
Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of the cytogenetic and clinicopathologic profile of adult primary MDS seen consecutively at a tertiary-care centre in South India between 2003 and 2017.

Acquired clonal chromosomal abnormalities (CAs) are usually considered to be disease-related. However, when a CA of this type is the only abnormality present (and especially in small clones), the clinical significance is unclear. Here, we review the literature on recurrent CAs whose significance is regularly subject to debate.
