Malignant Phyllodes Tumor and Acute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia Sharing a Common Clonal Origin by Yngvar Fløisand, Klaus Beiske, Geir Erland Tjønnfjord, Dag Heldal, Bodil Bjerkehagen, Mona-Elisabeth Revheim, Sverre Heim, Øyvind Sverre Bruland, Kirsten Sundby Hall, Anne Tierens, Jan Delabie

“…There is a well-known association in male patients between mediastinal germ cell tumors (GCT) and hematologic malignancies, with a propensity towards acute megakaryoblastic leukemia. These rare malignancies have been shown to share a common clonal origin, often deduced from the finding of isochromosome 12p, i(12p), in cells from both the solid tumor and the leukemia, and thus are now known to represent different manifestations of the same clonal process. …”
