## Abstract Chromosome studies were performed after short‐term in vitro culture of 39 samples from neurinomas and two samples from malignant schwannomas. Clonal abnormalities involving chromosome 22 were observed in 23 cases, as the sole chromosomal deviation in 12 of them. In 11 samples, other clo

✦ Synopsis
Cytogenetic analysis of short-term cultures from a case of monostotic fibrous dysplasia in a 14-year-old girl revealed multiple clonal structural rearrangements with evidence of clonal evolution. The karyotype was 46,XX,del( 3)(q27),add( I O)(q22), add( I2)(p I 3)/46,idem,t(3;8)(p2I ;q I 3),add( I O)(q26),der( I5)del( I5)(q I Sq22)ins( I S;?)(q I5;?)/46,idem,-X, + 2,t(3;8),add( IO),der (I 5). The finding of clonal structural aberrations suggests that fibrous dysplasia is a neoplastic lesion which develops as the result of somatic mutations. Genes Chromosom Cancer I1:271-272 (1994).

## Abstract Short‐term cultures from 12 oral squamous cell carcinomas were cytogenetically investigated. A normal karyotype was found in 3 tumors, 2 of which had many nonclonal changes. Clonal chromosome abnormalities were detected in the remaining 9 cases, in 6 of them in the form of 2 or 3 abnorm
Among 209 patients with Shereshevsky-Turner syndrome, 69 women with structural aberrations of X chromosome were detected: 46,X,i(Xq) - 11; 45,X/46,X,i(Xq) - 24; 45,X/46,X,r(X) - 14; 45,X/46,X,f(X or Y) - 10; 45,X/46,X,del(Xq) - 4; 45,X/46,X,del(Xp) - 2; 45,X/46,X,idic(X) - 2; 46,X,idic(X) - 1; and 4
