Abstract The translocation t(8;9)(p22;p24) results in the production of a chimeric PCM1‐JAK2 fusion protein leading to the constitutive activation of the Janus Kinase 2 that renders this disease potentially sensitive to ruxolitinib. Here, we report an interesting case of PCM1‐JAK2 myeloproliferative neoplasm evolving in myeloid sarcoma and B precursor ALL.
