Definition / Description of Disease

B-ALL with hyperdiploidy is a neoplasm of lymphoblasts committed to the B-cell lineage whose blasts contain >50 chromosome (usually <66), typically without translocations or other structural alterations.  


In the context of B-ALL, hyperdiploidy is further subdivided into two groups including low hyperdiploidy (47–50 chromosomes) and high hyperdiploidy ( > 50 chromosomes) with some studies further defining the high hyperdiploid subgroup as those with a modal chromosome number of 51–68. [1] [2] [3] [4]

Put your text here (Instructions: Include currently used terms and major historical ones, adding “(historical)” after the latter.)

Epidemiology / Prevalence

The incidence of hyperdiploidy in B-ALL decreases with age: [5][6][7][8][9]

  • approximately 25% of pediatric patients (ages 1–9 years)
  • approximately 10% of adolescents (ages 10–15 years)
  • approximately 5–7% of adults (age > 19 years)

Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods

Hyperdiploidy is readily identifiable by conventional chromosome studies, FISH and CMA. CMA studies have shown that approximately 80% of hyperdiploid cases have additional genomic abnormalities with chromosomes commonly involved being 1, 9, 11, 12, and X.
