Abstract
It is rare for trisomy 6 to occur as the sole autosomal anomaly in hematological malignancies, but this finding has been reported to be associated with a hypoplastic bone marrow. We report the case of a 75-year-old male with acute monocytic leukemia, in which trisomy 6 was detected as the sole stemline abnormality. We also summarize the 26 published cases of acute myeloid leukemia involving isolated trisomy 6.Entities:
