This study further defines the region of consistent deletion of chromosome 7 in uterine leiomyomas. We have examined 74 leiomyomas for allelic loss of markers spanning the 7q22 region defined by markers D7S518 and D7S471. Forty tumors with cytogenetically defined 7q deletions, twenty-nine tumors wit
Uterine leiomyoma cytogenetically exhibits at least six chromosomally abnormal subgroups. The largest subgroup is characterized by deletions of the long arm of chromosome 7. Few molecular and fluorescence in situ hybridization data are available that have aimed at a better definition of the lesion.
