inv (4)(p13q13) in patient with essential thrombocythemia: A case report

The inv (4)(p13q13) cytogenetic abnormality is uncommon in hematologic malignancies. So far, it has not been previously reported in patients with essential thrombocythemia (ET). We report a first case of ET with inv (4)(p13q13) karyotype in a 69-year-old female patient who developed myelofibrosis at...
