Abstract
Two clones were observed at the initial phase of an acute myelogenous leukemia (AML): 46,XX,t(15;17) and 46,XX,t(8;21),t(15;17). Clinical, immunologic, and morphologic findings were in favor of expression of both chromosomal anomalies. Relapse occurred after 12 months of complete remission with typical acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) syndrome when t(15;17) alone was then most predominant.
