Extramedullary T-lymphoblastic Crisis in a Myelodysplastic/Myeloproliferative Neoplasm with a t(12;22)/MN1::ETV6 Translocation.

ABSTRACT: Myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms (MDS/MPN) are not a single disease, but rather a heterogenous group of entities which are increasingly subclassified according to recurrent genetic abnormalities. Chromosomal translocations involving meningioma 1 (MN1) and ETS variant 6 (ETV6) genes are extremely rare, but recurrent in myeloid neoplasms. We describe the case of a patient with a myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasm with neutrophilia, who developed an extramedullary T-lymphoblastic crisis with the t(12;22)(p13;q12) translocation as the only cytogenetic abnormality. This case shares several clinical and molecular features with myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with eosinophilia. The treatment of this patient was challenging, as the disease proved to be highly refracto
