FISH-negative BCR::ABL1-positive e19a2 chronic myeloid leukaemia: the most cryptic of insertions.

We present a patient with suspected chronic myeloid leukaemia whose genetic investigations were originally negative at the time of diagnosis despite the use of contemporaneous gold standard methods. This is the first report of a FISH-negative, BCR::ABL1 positive CML which demonstrates that, even after sixty years of research into one of the most well understood human malignancies, whole genome sequencing can yield novel diagnostic findings in CML.
