Abstract excerpt
14q-deletions have been repeatedly described in mature B-cell neoplasms, but not yet characterized in a larger cohort. Based on chromosome banding analysis, the present study identified 47 del(14q) cases in 3054 mature B-cell neoplasms (1·5%) (chronic lymphocytic leukaemia [CLL]: 1·9%; CLL/prolymphocytic leukaemia [PL]: 9·0%; others: 0·2%). Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization was performed with probes...
