OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical and laboratory features of a patient with 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome (EMS) and CEP110-FGFR1 fusion. METHODS Combined bone marrow cytology, fluorescence in situ hybridization, fusion gene detection was used to analyze the patient. RESULTS Clinically, the patient had many features similar to those with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, which included hyperleukocytosis, marked eosinophilia, monocytosis, myeloid hyperplasia and hyperplasia. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis for FGFR1 gene rearrangement was positive. Further study of the mRNA also confirmed an in-frame fusion between exon 38 of the CEP110 gene and exon 9 of FGFR1 gene. CONCLUSION EMS with CEP110-FGFR1 fusion is a very rare and distinct myeloproliferative neoplasm. FISH and molecular studies may improve its diagnosis.

The 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome (EMS) is an extremely rare, generally aggressive haematologic malignancies. This study provided the clinical outcomes and therapeutic strategies for EMS patients confirmed with CEP110-FGFR1 fusion. We report here a case of translocation (8;9) (p12;q33)/CEP110-FGFR1 who received allo-HSCT and achieved molecular remission.

This brief communication reports on a patient with an exceedingly rare "8p11 (eight-p-eleven) myeloproliferative syndrome" (EMS) with rearrangement who responded to treatment with the multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) dasatinib. Dasatinib improved quality of life substantially by increasing blood counts and reducing the need for transfusions. This report demonstrates that the second-generation TKI may provide a therapeutic option for elderly and frail EMS patients who cannot be offered aggressive therapy, including allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation.
