We used comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) to evaluate DNA sequence copy number changes in 67 synovial sarcomas of both monophasic and biphasic histological subtypes. Changes (mean among aberrant cases: 4.7 aberrations/tumor; range: 1-17), affecting most often entire chromosomes or chromosome a

## Abstract Loss of heterozygosity and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies have shown that deletions of 1p and 19q are highly prevalent in oligodendroglioma. However, these tumors have not been comprehensively screened for other alterations in chromosomal dosage. In this study, we use
Familial occurrence of gliomas, in the absence of well-defined hereditary multisystem disorders, is reported occasionally. We describe 17 families that have been afflicted with two or more gliomas but do not raise suspicion of other inheritable syndromes. The families were identified among 369 conse
