Abstract

We report the case of a young adult male carrying a constitutional unbalanced t(Y;13)(q11-12;p13) leading to a partial Y disomy, and presenting successively, in a 39-month interval, with an Askin tumor and a t(8;21) acute myeloid leukemia. The origin of the two neoplasias in this patient is discussed.
