✦ Synopsis

Our cytogenetic findings in 175 uterine leiomyomas revealed 52 tumors with clonal chromosome abnormalities, eight of which did not belong to any well-delineated cytogenetic abnormal subgroup. However, an interstitial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 3 was found, as the sole chromosome abnormality, in three cases. We believe that this involvement of 3q is significant enough to consider it as a new cytogenetic subgroup of uterine leiomyoma. Genes Chromosom Cancer 13:219-220 (1995). 0 1995 Wiley-Lia. Inc.

We encountered a 67-year-old female with chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL). Cytogenetic study showed she had a deletion in the long arm of chromosome 20. This finding indicates that CNL, in this case, is a clonal disorder. Most CNL patients have normal karyotypes, and only four patients with cytog

## Abstract Interstitial deletions of the long arm of chromosome 3 are uncommon. Most cases are related to the blepharophimosis–ptosis–epicanthus inversus syndrome (BPES), which is mapped to 3q23. We report on a case with a de novo chromosomal deletion of 3q23 and 3q25. We review the literature on
