Twenty-nine nonendocrine pancreatic carcinomas (20 primary tumors and nine metastases) were studied by chromosome banding after short-term culture. Acquired clonal aberrations were found in 25 tumors and a detailed analysis of these revealed extensive cytogenetic intratumor heterogeneity. Apart from

## Abstract Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) is a benign but locally aggressive tumor with metastatic potential. We performed cytogenetic analysis on 101 GCTB from 92 patients. Karyotypes were obtained from 95 tumors, 47 of which had clonal aberrations. The majority of the cytogenetically abnormal G
## Abstract Cytogenetic analysis of short‐term cultures from 52 colorectal carcinomas revealed a normal karyotype in 13 and clonal chromosome aberrations in 39 tumors. In the abnormal group, 13 tumors had simple numerical changes only, whereas 26 had at least one structural rearrangement with or wi
Cytogenetic investigation of nine pancreatic carcinomas revealed structural rearrangements of chromosome 19 in eight cases, resulting in a high frequency of 19p losses and 19q gains. To characterize these imbalances further, we performed fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis with 12 map
