Abstract
Genetic alterations identified in human ovarian tumors by conventional banding, fluorescence in situ hybridization, comparative genomic hybridization, chromosome microdissection, loss of heterozygosity, chromosome microcellβmediated chromosome transfer, and microarray gene expression analysis are summarized and correlated. The significance of these findings with respect to pathologic classification and clinical application are discussed. Β© 2002 WileyβLiss, Inc.

## Abstract To date, much progress has been made in the fields of cytogenetics and molecular genetics of renal tumors. The previous and recent findings have delineated the characteristics of the various tumors, particularly the cytogenetic and molecular differences that exist between papillary and
Childhood leukemia is the commonest form of childhood cancer and represents clonal proliferation of transformed hemopoietic cells as a result of genetic changes. Molecular characterization of these changes, in particular chromosomal translocations, has yielded a wealth of information on the mechanis
