Platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFRb) gene is located on chromosome 5q31-33; its rearrangement leads to constitutive tyrosine kinase activity [1]. Hematological malignancies associated with PDGFRb gene fusions are classified as myeloid/lymphoid neoplasm with eosinophilia and rearrangement of PDGFRb in WHO classification [2]. In most cases, myeloid/lymphoid neoplasm with rearrangement of PDGFRb presents phenotypically as myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)/MPN overlap neoplasm (chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, atypical chronic myeloid leukemia, juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia), MDS, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and so on [1, 3]. As distinct from myeloid/lymphoid neoplasm with rearrangement of PDGFRa, eosinophilia is not necessary for the diagnosis of myeloid/lymphoid neoplasm and rearrangement of PDGFRb [1-3], and it is sometimes difficult to diagnose. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) reportedly produce a long-term response in the chronic phase of this disease [4]. However, there are no reports about standard therapies in the blast phase of this malignancy because of the rarity of cases in the blast phase. Here, we report a unique case of blast phase myeloid/lymphoid neoplasm and rearrangement of PDGFRb that was diagnosed based on the presence of significant eosinophilia after chemotherapy, and that did not respond to TKIs right from the outset. A 56-year-old woman with a history of WilsonLs disease got a regular medical checkup, and laboratory data was normal. One month later, the patient was referred for the evaluation of leukocytosis. Laboratory studies on admission revealed leukocytosis with leukemic blasts and thrombocytopenia, with a white blood cell (WBC) count of 86.2 Â103/ll (28.5% blast cells, 11.0% lymphocytes, 40.5% neutrophils, 14.0% monocytes, and 6.0% eosinophils) and platelet count of 6.9 Â104/ll. A bone marrow (BM) aspirate (Figure 1 (a)) showed hypercellular marrow with 27.7% peroxidase-positive myeloblasts with the following immunophenotype: cluster of differentiation (CD) À13: 84.5%, CD33: 95.7%, CD11b: 35.9%, and CD14: 1.2%. Other representative components of BM were 8.9% eosinophils, 8.2% monocytes, 2.0% lymphocytes, 47.7% myeloid series except myeloblasts, and 4.8% erythroid series. Her hemoglobin level was 8.6 g/dl. Conventional cytogenetic analyses of the BM aspirate revealed 46, XX, add (5)(q31), add (7)(q11. 2), À12, der (?) t (?; 7)(?; q11. 2) in 15 out of 20 metaphases. The patient was diagnosed with AML with maturation, not otherwise specified and received induction therapy, including idarubicin and cytarabine (AraC).The patient did not achieve hematological complete remission, and developed significant eosinophilia after the induction therapy. Complete blood count obtained 41days after the induction therapy showed a hemoglobin of 11.0 g/dl, WBC count of 13.9 Â 103/ll, and platelet count of 3.6 Â104/ll. A differential count revealed 17.0% eosinophils, 44.0% neutrophils, 12.5% lymphocytes, and 20.5% monocytes among the circulating mononuclear cells. BM smear at this time showed hyper cellular marrow with 60.4% of mature eosinophils and 7.8% of myeloblasts (Figure 1 (b)). Moreover, spectral karyotyping fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis of BM cells at this time revealed 46, XX, t (5; 12)(q33; p13), t (7; 12)(q11. 2; q24. 1) in 15 out of 20 metaphases (Figure 1 (c)) and FISH analysis for PDGFRb was positive for a split signal in 81.0% of the peripheral blood cells. Therefore, the patient was diagnosed as myeloid neoplasm with
