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.

We present one such case of AML transformed from V617F mutated primary myelofibrosis and review the literature on this topic. The immunophenotype and the landscape of cooperative gene alterations in AML with resemble those of AML with , including expression of CD19, cooperative gene alterations in signaling pathway (), epigenetic/chromatin and cell cycle regulation (, , and ), and additional chromosomal abnormalities (trisomies 8 and 15).

Background: Patients with Down syndrome (DS) have a unique genetic and clinical profile that may increase the risk of cancer.
Methods: A literature search on PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and the Cochrane databases was conducted, focusing on studies to investigate the prevalence of solid and hematologic tumors in DS.
Results: Fifteen studies were included, encompassing 62,121 individuals with Down syndrome (DS).

Congenital leukaemia (CL) is an exceptionally uncommon hematologic malignancy originating intrauterine and is typically associated with an unfavourable prognosis. The present case is a seven-day-old Malay baby girl who presented with mild fever and hepatosplenomegaly. She was initially treated as neonatal sepsis however subsequent investigations with bone marrow, trephine biopsy and immunophenotyping were consistent with B acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.

Background: Aberrant gene promoter methylation is one of the hallmarks of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). is an important gene, implicated in sister chromatids cohesion, DNA repair, the regulation of gene transcription, apoptosis and hematopoiesis.
Methods: In this study, we investigate the possible implication of promoter methylation in AML pathogenesis using a cohort of AML patients and a cohort of healthy individuals.
