Abstract excerpt
Here we report the association of giant platelets and an increase in platelet volume in a 19-month-old black female with de novo del 11q24-qter. The deletion, which was visible on karyotype, was further confirmed and more precisely localized by fluorescence in situ hybridization studies (FISH) that showed the deletion to lie distal to the MLL gene region (11q23). Clinically, the case presented less severe...
