Burkitt's type translocation in multiple myeloma

Leuk Res. 1994 Sep;18(9):671-3. doi: 10.1016/0145-2126(94)90066-3.

Abstract

We report a case of multiple myeloma with a t(8;22)(q24;q11) found during the progression of the disease. The relation between the association of a Burkitt's type translocation with cytological characteristic features is presented. To our knowledge, there is no report of a multiple myeloma with t(8;22)(q24;11).
