Short-term cultures of 50 fibroadenomas of the breast were cytogenetically analyzed. Nine tumors were found to display clonal chromosome aberrations. One had multiple, cytogenetically unrelated clones, whereas the others had a single abnormal clone each. Four cases had one balanced translocation as

This review emphasizes cytogenetic changes and DNA analyses by Southern blot in primary breast tumors, rather than metastases, established cell lines, and pleural effusions. The data suggests that the most frequently altered chromosomes and chromosome regions are lp, lq, 2q, 3p, 6q, 8p, 8q, llp, llq
Erythroleukemia (EL) is a heterogeneous disease in terms of cell type affected, chromosome abnormalities found in the malignant clone, and clinical course. In this article, cases of erythroid EL from the recent medical literature are reviewed using cytogenetic criteria to distinguish such cases from
