Popis: Aims & methods: We used interphase FISH to determine the incidence of chromosomal changes in 638 B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients. Results: Chromosomal abnormalities were found in some 75% of the patients. Del(13)(q14) was present in 57.3 and 57% of patients at diagnosis and during follow-up, respectively. It was followed by trisomy 12 (19 and 19.8% at diagnosis and during follow-up, respectively), del(11)(q22) (9.1 and 14.3% at diagnosis and during follow-up, respectively) and del(17)(p13) (2.8 and 12.4% at diagnosis and during follow-up, respectively). Discussion & conclusion: Our results correlate with those obtained in 55 studies reported in the literature. Trisomy 12 and del(13)(q14) are present in high proportions at diagnosis and are not enriched during progression, to the contrary of del(11)(q22) and del(17)(p13) that are markers of evolution.
