First evidence of coexistence of Pseudo Pelger Huet anomaly and balanced translocation in a two decades retrospectively exposed human subject

Abstract excerpt

This study investigated the long-term stability of cytogenetic and morphological markers, including dicentric chromosomes (DC), unbalanced translocation (UT), balanced translocation (BT), and Pseudo Pelger-Huët Anomaly (PPHA), in a radiation worker exposed to an acute dose of 60 Co-γ radiation. Initial dose assessment, one week after exposure via Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) and DC, yielded a physical dose...
