Abstract

Objective To evaluate the technique of multiplex fluorescence in situ hybridization(M-FISH) in the detection of the complex chromosomal aberrations(CCAs) in multiple myeloma(MM).Methods M-FISH was used in five MM patients with CCAs detected by R-banding to refine complex chromosomal rearrangements and the constitute of marker chromosomes.Results Twenty kinds of structural rearrangements were detected by M-FISH including 2 kinds of deletions,18 kinds of translocations which were all imbalanced rearrangements.In addition,chromosomes 14,6 and 1q rearrangements were the most frequently involved aberrations.Conclusion M-FISH could refine CCAs of MM patients,find or correct the missed or misidentified abnormalities analysed by conventional cytogenetics.It provides an ideal method for the research of chromosomal aberrations in MM.
