title: der(1;15)(q10;10): a nonrandom chromosomal abnormality of myeloid neoplasia.
abstract: The occurrence of an unusual karyotypic abnormality der(1;15)(q10;q10) is reported in three patients, one with acute megakaryoblastic leukemia and two with myelodysplastic syndrome. A literature review shows that this cytogenetic abnormality is a rare but nonrandom change in myeloid neoplasia/neoplasia.
