title: New variant t(9;11;14)(p22;q23;q24) suggests a translocation of 9p to 11q as the critical genetic event.
abstract: We describe a patient with M5a (FAB classification) associated with a new type of variant translocation (9;11), namely t(9;11;14)(p22;q23;q24). The translocation of chromosome fragment from 9p to 11q is the common feature among the five variant translocations in the literature and our patient.
