| Summary: | The real mechanism involved in trisomies and leukemogenesis remains unknown and more information about this connection is essential, but unfortunately the clinical outcome and hematological profile of patients with isolated trisomy 11 and AML have not been well characterized. Considering the limited data on the specific disease entity, the current report describes two cases of de novo acute monocytic leukemia (AMoL) and isolated +11, in which this event was further characterized.<br>O mecanismo envolvido em trissomias e leucemogênese permanece não esclarecido e mais dados sobre esta relação são fundamentais, mas infelizmente os resultados clínicos e o perfil hematológico dos pacientes com trissomia 11 isolada e LMA ainda não foram bem caracterizados. Considerando o limitado número de informações, este relato descreve dois casos de leucemia monocítica de novo e trissomia 11 onde este evento foi caracterizado. |
