Five patients with acute myeloid leukemia showing several complex rearrangements were examined by spectral karyotype (SKY) analysis. Twenty rearrangements, misclassified or undetected by standard cytogenetic techniques, were identified. The present study supports the ability of SKY to detect the organization of chromosome rearrangements and to identify new prognostic markers.
