The t(1;19)(q23;p13), which can result in the TCF3-PBX1 chimeric gene, is one of the most frequent translocations in B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) and is observed in both adult and pediatric populations at an overall frequency of 6%. It can occur in a balanced or unbalanced form and as a sole abnormality is associated with an intermediate prognosis. Additionally, this translocation is observed in the context of hyperdiploid B-ALL, in which case it is associated with a poor prognosis. However, due to different translocation partner genes at chromosomes 1 and 19, distinct subtypes of hyperdiploid B-ALL with t(1;19)/der(19)t(1;19) are recognized based on the presence or absence of the TCF3-PBX1 fusion gene
