Abstract

Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial malignancy of childhood. Patients with high-risk disease receive multimodal treatment including chemotherapy combinations containing alkylating agents and topoisomerase inhibitors with potential for inducing therapy-related malignancy later in life. Most commonly, cytogenetic changes of pediatric therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia involve chromosome 5 or 7. Here we report a novel case of therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia 30 months after treatment for high-risk neuroblastoma with biphenotypic cell surface markers and a not yet described translocation t(1;6)(q25;p23).
