## Abstract The molecular mechanisms underlying the genesis and progression of oligodendroglial tumors are poorly understood, since only restricted information on loss of heterozygosity from isolated cases is available. The commonest alterations appear to involve deletion of 1p and 19q, while loss
Rhabdoid tumors of the kidney are highly malignant neoplasms that occur primarily within the first 3 years of life. Although they are regarded as distinct from Wilms' tumors, their pathogenesis remains unclear. Whereas most cytogenetic studies of these tumors have revealed normal karyotypes, a few r
