Abstract :
We report four cases of unrelated adult males carrying constitutive balanced pericentric inversions of chromosome X (one case), chromosome 2 (one case), and chromosome 5 (two cases) and presenting with myeloid malignancies. We discuss the potential contribution of these abnormalities to a background of susceptibility to hematologic malignancies.
