12 chromosomal regions (eight deletions and four amplifications) containing at least one gene implicated in AML or MDS (deletions of 3p14.1: FHIT, 5q31.1: CTNNA1, 12p12.3: ETV6, 16q22.1: CBFB, 17p13.1: TP53, 17q11.2: NF1, and amplifications of 8q23.2: MYC, 11q23.3: MLL, and 21q22.2: ETS2) were identified in multiple AML cases. Here, ETV6 is linked to acute myeloid leukemia.
