Abstract
- Additional copies of chromosome 8 are nonrandom karyotypic aberrations in myeloid malignancies with trisomy 8 being the most common. Hexasomy 8 is extremely rare and only two cases have been reported. We report a case of acute myeloid leukemia with hexasomy 8 as a sole karyotypic aberration by conven-tional cytogenetic analysis. The patient was diagnosed as acute monoblastic leukemia and showed short survival.
