## Abstract The underlying genetic events associated with follicular thyroid tumorigenesis are still ill defined. In this study, we performed a screening for chromosome imbalances by comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) in a group of 12 follicular adenomas (FAs) and 20 follicular carcinomas (FTC
Short-term cultures of 19 follicular thyroid carcinomas were examined cytogenetically. Clonal chromosomal changes were detected in 12 tumors. Two follicular carcinomas had only numerical alterations: one with a hyperdiploid karyotype with trisomies/polysomies of chromosomes 7 and 12, similar to the
