Popis: Immunoglobulin heavy-chain variable region (IGHV) mutational status and karyotype abnormalities are important prognostic factors in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The goal was to assess the impact of IGHV in CLL patients with isolated favorable genetic aberrations (del13q, trisomy 12, or negative fluorescence in situ hybridization [FISH]). We studied 273 CLL patients with both IGHV mutational status and cytogenetic information: 145 with isolated del13q 49 with sole trisomy 12 and 79 with negative FISH. After a median follow-up of 7.8 years, patients with del13q-unmutated IGHV had a shorter time to first treatment (TFT) (2.98 vs. 17.44 years; p
