ABSTRACT
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), which is usually defined by the morphological features of the leukemic cells, is characterized by the t(15;17) (q22;q21) chromosomal translocation and disseminated intravascular coagulation. This specific translocation results in a new fusion transcript between the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) gene and the retinoic acid receptor-alpha (RARalpha) gene. Although the presence of this fusion gene can predict a favorable clinical response to all-trans-retinoic-acid (ATRA) treatment, APL with chromosomal translocations other than t(15;17) (q22;q21) is extremely rare and is associated with a poor prognosis. We experienced a case of APL with de novo t(11;19).
