✦ Synopsis


We present a case of acute myelomonoblastic leukemia with marrow eosinophilia (M4Eo) having inv( 16) developed after etoposide administration for chronic type adult T-cell leukemia (ATL). A 74-year-old Japanese woman was admitted in April 1993 because of a fungal infection on the chest skin that occurred 5 months before. The leukocyte count was 28.9 Γ— 10 9 /l with 61% abnormal lymphocytes showing lobulated nuclei and expressing CD4 antigen. The serum was positive for anti-HTLV-I antibody. She was diagnosed as chronic type ATL and treated with two courses of 75 mg of etoposide orally for 21 days. The leukocyte counts decreased

TAL1 gene deregulation is frequent in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and can result from translocations involving 1p32 or, more frequently, from a cytogenetically undetectable interstitial deletion of chromosome 1. This study presents a case of T-ALL with a t(1;5)(p32;q31) involving TAL
