## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Endometrial carcinomas seem to carry a different prognosis depending on the presence or absence of concomitant complex atypical hyperplasia (hyperplasia). The molecular genetic profile of these two pathogenetic types, based on the genes reportedly mutated in these cancers
## Abstract A majority of malignant melanomas harbor an oncogenic mutation in either __BRAF__ or __NRAS__. If __BRAF__ and __NRAS__ transform melanoma cells by a similar mechanism, then additional genetic aberrations would be similar (or random). Alternatively, distinct mutationβassociated changes
## Abstract Hepatoblastoma (HB) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are two different subtypes of primary tumors arising from liver parenchymal cells. These tumors differ by many histoclinical characteristics, and comparative analysis of genetic alterations in HB and HCC might provide some clues on
