ABSTRACT
ETV6ABL1 fusion gene is a rare but recurrent genomic rearrangement in hematological malignancies with poor prognosis. Here, we report 1 case of Ph negative myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with eosinophilia and tyrosine kinase gene fusions (MLN-TK) who carry ETV6ABL1 fusion gene. The patient achieved clinical remission after treatment with imatinib. However, disease progression of blast crisis was observed around 2 years later. The patient was treated with second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor of flumatinib, yielded a short term second therapeutic response. ETV6ABL1 positive myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with eosinophilia and tyrosine kinase gene fusions (MLN-TK) is rare and may be misdiagnosed by conventional cytogenetical analysis. Early treatment with TKIs, particularly second-generation TKIs, may be beneficial to improve treatment results.
