Collection of new recurring or rare chromosome aberrations

One of the major aims of this project is the collection of new recurring and/or rare chromosome aberrations. Cases of interest shall be :
- recurrent (i.e. previously described in at least 1 case),
- rare (previously described in less than 30 cases),
with well documented clinics and laboratory findings including images of the chromosome findings in cases of hematological malignancy, which were previously unpublished. These cases will be published in the Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology in collaboration between the Atlas and the European LeukemiaNet - Workpackage 11. Guidelines for authors may be found at the Atlas.

A list of rare recurring chromosome aberrations is available at the Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology .

Note : The Atlas is indexed in the Current Contents, and case reports in the Atlas are recorded in Mitelman's database of Chromosome Aberrations in Cancer
