Abstract

Context: Acute myelomonocytic leukemia is an acute myeloid leukemia subtype due to the inversion of chromosome 16 that causes the formation of a fusion gene called CBFB-MYH11 Objective: Detecting the existence of this fusion gene is critical in the diagnosis of this pathology. This case seeks to consolidate the implementation of a highly sensitive and specific molecular test for the detection of the CBFB-MYH11 gene. Methodology: RNA of the patient diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, was taken from peripheral blood. A nested RT-PCR, adapted to the pre-established protocol, was performed to detect CBFB-MYH11. Results: The method for detecting the fusion gene CBFB-MYH11 was adjusted and standardized by using RT-PCR. This technique allowed to identify chromosome 16 inversion in the case study. Conclusions: The result is in line with other previous research studies. Detecting this and other chromosomal aberrations, by molecular testing, allows to make crucial therapeutic decisions for the patient's prognosis and quality of life improvement.
