Abstract:
Three white patients, two with myelofibrosis and one with refractory anemia, presented with a t(1;7). The clinical and cytogenetic findings are discussed in the context of 45 cases already published. Rather than the specific association of t(1;7) with a particular hematologic disorder, a review of the literature strongly suggests correlation with therapeutic or environmental exposure to toxic substances. The proposed mechanisms to explain the origin of t(1;7) are briefly reviewed.
