The case of a patient with ecchymosis, hepatomegaly, leukocytosis, thrombocytopenia, and anemia at birth is presented. Throughout his course, thrombocytopenia, anemia, and leukocytosis without a marked increase in the number of blast forms in either peripheral blood or bone marrow persisted until the patient developed a blast crisis shortly before his death at age 4 months. This patient is the youngest reported to have the juvenile form of chronic myelogenous leukemia and the first that in the present era can be considered congenital in origin.

JAK2 V617F mutation and BCR-ABL translocation have been considered to be mutually exclusive. However, many cases where both hits coexisted have been reported. We have personally managed a case too. We believe this hybrid entity is underdiagnosed. Thus, we decided to shed light on this “double hit” disease to improve its diagnosis and optimize its treatment. We reviewed the English literature in PubMed since JAK2 discovery. We found 33 cases reported so far. We summarized patient characteristics and analyzed possible interactions between JAK2 and BCR-ABL clones.

Treating two active malignancies concurrently can be exceedingly difficult. Complications can occur from the different treatment regimens, especially if they share common targets, and the progressing diseases can make managing treatment side-effects even more challenging. We report a case of a patient with coexisting CML and mRCC who progressed on multiple lines of mRCC therapy while experiencing significant dose limiting side-effects.
