We report on four cases of trisomy 14 as the sole anomaly. Three cases were myelodysplastic syndromes and one was a non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. This anomaly is mainly in myeloid disorders and still remains to be well documented. On the other hand, we show this anomaly to be also a non-random anomaly in lymphoproliferative disorders.

We describe a patient with trilineage myelodysplasia and hyperplastic megakaryopoiesis associated with significant myelofibrosis at diagnosis, who developed acute myeloid leukaemia two months afterwards. The clinical and pathological features were consistent with a myelodysplasia/myelofibrosis syndrome with leukemic transformation. Cytogenetic investigation showed trisomy 14, del(20q) and t(3;3) (q21;q26). These findings are of possible significance in the understanding of the association between myelodysplasia and myelofibrosis.

Two cases of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and a case of acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia (ANLL) with a trisomy 14 are presented. The series of results derived from our cases, and those previously reported, strongly suggest that this anomaly may be another nonrandom change, confined within myeloid disorders and associated with patients' advanced age, marked tendency to bone marrow dysplastic features, normal platelet values, and not unfavorable prognosis.

Isolated gain of chromosome 14 (trisomy 14 or +14) has been reported in myeloid malignancy. Seven cases were identified by review of all diagnostic bone marrow specimens with cytogenetics performed at our institution from 1983 to 1995. Median age was older (72 years) and diagnosis was myelodysplasia in the majority of cases. Although trilineage dysplasia occurred, platelet counts were relatively well preserved (median 131 x 10(9)/l). Mosaic karyotype (normal plus abnormal metaphases) was seen in the majority of cases, and survival from diagnosis was short (<2 years). These features are consistent with data from 30 previously published cases, and support the hypothesis that trisomy 14 occurs as a non-random cytogenetic abnormality in association with myeloid malignancy.

A total of 11 cases with trisomy 14 as the sole abnormality were found in the database of a large cytogenetic reference laboratory from 1993 to the present. Four of the 11 cases had an isochromosome 14q. In 8 cases, the trisomy 14 was a mosaic cell line. Eight cases were diagnosed with myelodysplasia, 2 cases had both myelodysplastic and myeloproliferative features similar to some atypical chronic myeloid leukemia cases, and 1 case had acute myeloid leukemia of M1 or M2 type. Nine were males and two females. The median age was 77 years. Referring physicians were contacted and clinical information was available in only 8 cases. Survival ranged from 1 month to approximately 3 years. An abnormal red cell morphology, such as elliptocytes or schistocytes or both, was observed in the majority of cases. This study along with the reported cases strengthens the hypothesis that trisomy 14 is a nonrandom cytogenetic abnormality associated with myeloid malignancy.

The inclusion of cytogenetic studies in the protocol study of patients with hematological malignant diseases is a very important contribution because these results contribute to establish better precision of diagnosis, prognostic and suggest adequate therapeutic management precociously. The Karyotypes of 200 patients between ages of 2 and 84 years, 56/200 acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), 55/200 acute myeloid leukemia (AML), 63/200 chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), 20/200 myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), and 6/200 chronic lymphocytic leukemia, (CLL), are analyzed. Certain differences were noted. In ALL, hyperdiploidy was the chromosomal abnormality more frequently observed and no cases of Ph+ chromosome were reported; with respect to AML, the autosomal monosomy and trisomy were the most frequent findings. MDS reports only one case with 5q deletion, 10% of patients presented trisomy 14, rarely reported. CML do no report any case with double Ph+ and only one case with i(17q); nevertheless, one case with 21q deletion was found, which is an unreported anomaly. CLL did not present any case with trisomy 12. These findings are discussed in the context of geographical heterogeneity of chromosomal abnormalities in leukemia, and emphasize the importance of continued epidemiological studies.

To our knowledge, 58 cases of trisomy 14 in association with hematological malignancies have been reported, predominantly in myeloid malignancies. We report two patients with trisomy 14 associated with myelodysplasia. The bone marrow showed trilineage dysplasia, monocytosis and only mild thrombocytopenia. A nonmosaic karyotype was seen in both patients and survival from diagnosis was short (<1 year). The features are consistent with data from other published cases and support the hypothesis that trisomy 14 is a non-random karyotypic abnormality, with defined clinical associations and a poor prognosis.

It may sometimes be difficult to diagnose low risk MDS in patients with mild cytopenia. We report on 10 patients with mild to marked, unexplained cytopenia without definitive signs of a myeloid neoplasm. In two patients, a karyotype-abnormality (trisomy 14; monosomy 7) was detected in a small subset of bone marrow cells. Progression to overt MDS was seen in two patients including the one with monosomy 7. In the remaining cases, no MDS developed in a follow-up of at least 6 months. The phrase "idiopathic cytopenia of undetermined significance (ICUS)", as also suggested by Mufti and co-workers, is proposed and long term follow-up is recommended to assess the evolution.

We describe a novel case of simultaneous karyotypic abnormalities of isochromosome 17q and trisomy 14 in a patient with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in leukemic transformation. A 66-yr-old Korean man was admitted to Severance Hospital for evaluation of pancytopenia. On the basis of bone marrow studies at 3 different stages, he was diagnosed with MDS in leukemic transformation. Chromosome karyotyping repeatedly showed the same main clonal abnormalities, including isochromosome 17q and trisomy 14. Isochromosome 17q and trisomy 14 have each been reported as rare, nonrandom recurrent chromosomal abnormalities in patients with MDS showing a poor prognosis. To our knowledge, this is the first report of concurrent i(17)(q10) and trisomy 14 in a patient with MDS in leukemic transformation.

Trisomy 14 is a rare recurrent cytogenetic abnormality in myeloid neoplasms; however, its clinicopathologic features have not been well described. We report the clinicopathologic, immunophenotypic, and molecular genetic features of 16 cases of myeloid neoplasms with isolated trisomy 14. Our results show that cases with isolated trisomy 14 encompass a heterogeneous group of myeloid neoplasms including myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS, 44%), myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms (31%), and acute myeloid leukemia (25%). The patients are usually elder (median age 71 years), and there is a male predominance (82%). Multilineage dysplasia is noted in all cases. Oncogenic mutations of genes involved in cell proliferation and/or survival rarely occur. Compared with cases of MDS with diploid karyotype, patients of MDS with isolated trisomy 14 demonstrate a similar overall survival and rate of leukemia transformation.
