Sumario:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with the high-risk variant inv(3)/t(3;3) or t(3;3)(q21;26.2) is rarely seen in the pediatric and young adult population. It is associated with poor outcomes with ineffective therapeutic options. Here, we present a case of an 18-year-old female with treatment refractory inv(3) AML in whom remission was unable to be obtained. Better treatment options are needed given the increased resistance to traditional therapy this subtype portrays. Here, we review the literature on pediatric and young adult inv(3) AML along with newer therapeutic options.
