title: Acute nonlymphocytic leukemia with a translocation (1;3)(p36;q21) in an XYY man.
abstract: Neoplastic disease is quite rare in an XYY syndrome. We report the fifth known case, who suffered from acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL). Cytogenetic study of his bone marrow revealed a new chromosomal translocation (1;3)(q36;q21), which has only recently been described in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome.
