    This study details two leukemia cases with triploid cell populations, a rare finding. Evidence suggests triploidy arose from chromosome loss in tetraploid cells, not duplication of hypodiploid cells.

    Area of Science:

    • Cytogenetics
    • Hematology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Triploid cell populations are uncommon in acute or chronic leukemia.
    • Tetraploid populations are more frequently observed in various leukemias.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of Philadelphia chromosome-positive leukemia presented with a modal triploid cell population.
    • A 3-year-old boy with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and a 68-year-old male with chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) in blastic crisis were analyzed.

    Findings:

    • G-banding analysis revealed modal chromosome numbers of 72 and 63, respectively.
    • Karyotypic instability, dominant trisomy, and random association of the Philadelphia chromosome with other chromosomal gains/losses were observed.
    • The triploid populations likely originated from random chromosome loss from tetraploid cells, which in turn derived from pseudodiploid cells.

    Implications:

    • This challenges the traditional understanding of triploid cell population origins in leukemia.
    • Provides new insights into the complex chromosomal abnormalities in Ph-positive leukemia.
    • May influence diagnostic and prognostic approaches for leukemia with triploid karyotypes.
