Vertebral Involvement

Incidence rate of lymphocytic leukaemia is unknown in canine patients; neurological manifestations and imaging findings are rarely reported. In human medicine, acute lymphocytic leukaemia is known to have a high rate of meningeal metastasis prompting the use of intrathecal chemotherapy for newly diagnosed cases regardless of neurological signs. This report documents the clinical presentation and diagnostic findings in a dog presenting with paraparesis and pain, ultimately diagnosed with aleukaemic lymphocytic leukaemia. MRI findings with diffuse vertebral involvement secondary to lymphocytic leukaemia have not been documented in the veterinary literature. This report adds to the clinical presentations of leukaemia in canines and highlights a neurological sequela of the disease. Further investigation into neurological involvement of leukaemia is needed in veterinary medicine and necropsy, with meningeal histopathology, is recommended for all cases of acute lymphocytic leukaemia in canines to assess the metastatic rate and direct further research.

Central Nervous System Leukemia

Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a neoplastic cancer characterized by clonal expansion of leukemic cells in lymph organs and bone marrow. Lots of kinds of different chromosomal translocations can be found in those leukemic cells. However, the role of abnormal chromosomes and genes in leukemogenesis is not yet fully understood. Identifying new chromosomal translocations can facilitate a better understanding of pathogenesis of this disease. Case presentation: We report a rare case of acute lymphocytic leukaemia with t(3;13)(q29, q21). The patient was diagnosed pre-B-ALL with no abnormal chromosomal or gene fusion and achieved complete remission (CR) after induction chemotherapy; 10 months later, she relapsed in the consolidation, with cytogenetics tests showing 46, XX, t(3;13)(q29, q21). Given no CR after two chemotherapy regimens, the patient received salvage cord blood transplantation. Regular intrathecal methotrexate was applied to prevent central nervous system leukemia. Good graft versus leukemia was induced by daily injection of a low dose of IL-2 2 months post-transplantation. Minimal residual disease negativity was maintained until central nervous system (CNS) leukemia was found 8 months after transplantation. A whole exome sequencing was performed. Nine driver mutation genes and seven tumor genes were found. Conclusions: We highly suspect that the relapse in the CNS after transplantation is associated with a rare chromosomal translocation.
