Abstract

We report a case of a psu dic(6;5)(p21.3;q13) in a patient with secondary myelodysplastic syndrome (sMDS) following treatment for multiple myeloma. The abnormal chromosome was isolated by flow karyotyping and initially identified by reverse chromosome painting. The findings were then confirmed by forward painting. The value of flow karyotyping as a diagnostic technique in hematologic malignancies is discussed.

Item Type:	Article
Additional Information:	Lee-Jones devised and completed all laboratory aspects of the paper and wrote paper. Research was part of a larger study to develop new approaches to characterise complex cytogenetic abnormalities and identify cryptic rearrangements in neoplasia, to further our understanding of tumourigenesis.
