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
Neuroblastoma tumors are characterized by aberrations of chromosome I. Rapid detection of these chromosomal aberrations at diagnosis could give important clues t o outcome and therapy.

Environmental exposure to mutagens is believed to play a significant role in human carcinogenesis. Determination of the in vivo effects of a single mutagen is best done in laboratory animals because humans are exposed to a variety of mutagens both in their diet and in the rest of their environment.
