Abstract
Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are clonal disorders divided into Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) or Ph chromosome-negative MPNs. Co-occurrence of these disease entities is very rare and typically involves presence of common p190 or p210 BCR/ABL fusion transcript (responsible for CML) along with JAK2V617F mutation (most common driver mutation in Ph-negative MPNs). Because of the rarity of such cases, it is not clear if the outcomes are any different in these patients. In this article, we report a unique patient with polycythemia vera driven by a rare complex in-frame deletion-insertion mutation in JAK2 exon 12, and CML driven by uncommon p210 e14a3 (b3a3) BCR/ABL fusion transcript. We describe clinical and laboratory features, bone marrow pathology, treatment, and overall outcome.
