A balanced translocation occurs when pieces from two different chromosomes exchange places without loss or gain of any chromosome material.
Almost a third of adult patients have a specific chromosome translocation; " Philadelphia Positive " ALL.
An unbalanced translocation involves the unequal loss or gain of genetic information between two chromosomes.
