Double minute chromosomes in acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes are associated with complex karyotype, monosomal karyotype, TP53 deletion, and TP53 mutations.

Abstract excerpt

Double minute chromosomes (DMs) are rare in hematologic malignancies. We presented the cytogenetic characteristics and clinical features of the largest single-center cohort of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients with DMs. A total of 2576 AML patients and 1642 MDS patients were investigated, and 30 patients (AML = 19; MDS = 11) who had DMs were followed up. DMs were more common...
