The simultaneous presence of two adverse genetic aberrations is of special interest: ETV6-RUNX1 fusion gene is associated with good prognosis and intrachromosomal amplification of the homologue RUNX1 gene is associated with poor prognosis.     ///    "We report six childhood acute lymphoid leukemia (ALL) cases with rare cytogenetic aberrations: five with RUNX1, ABL1 or MLL proto-oncogene amplification and one case of multiple copies of ETV6/RUNX1 fusion genes.
