Structural chromosome aberrations in a case of angioleiomyoma

Cancer Genet Cytogenet. 1986 Feb 15;20(3-4):325-30. doi: 10.1016/0165-4608(86)90091-9.

Abstract

Chromosome analysis of cells from an angioleiomyoma revealed the karyotype 46,XX,del(6)(p21p23),del(21)(q21)/46,XX. The possible importance of these structural derangements is discussed within the framework of current knowledge on chromosome aberrations in benign neoplasms.
