✦ Synopsis


Short-term cultures from 20 breast carcinomas were analyzed cytogenetically. A normal female chromosome complement was found in 4 cases. Clonal chromosome aberrations were detected in I 6 tumors. In I0 tumors, multiple cytogenetic clones were found; in 2 cancers the clones were related, reflecting clonal evolution, but in the remaining 8 tumors the clones were cytogenetically unrelated, indicating clonal heterogeneity in the origin of the tumor parenchyma. Correlation analysis between karyotypic and pathologic parameters indicated that cases with complex karyotypes and/or cytogenetically unrelated clones, when compared with cases with a single simple karyotypic abnormality, were generally of higher histologic malignancy grade, had more mitoses in the histologic sections, and also more often had carcinoma in situ lesions in the same breast.

## Abstract Cytogenetic analysis of short‐term cultures from 52 colorectal carcinomas revealed a normal karyotype in 13 and clonal chromosome aberrations in 39 tumors.

The immortalized, nontumorigenic human breast epithelial cell line HMT-3522 has been used as a model for premalignant and, eventually, malignant development. During cultivation, the karyotype evolution was followed. At an early stage, a very long constant phase showed a near-diploid karyotype, with
