## Abstract The underlying genetic events associated with follicular thyroid tumorigenesis are still ill defined. In this study, we performed a screening for chromosome imbalances by comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) in a group of 12 follicular adenomas (FAs) and 20 follicular carcinomas (FTC

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Nodules of the thyroid gland are observed frequently in patients who undergo ultrasound studies. The majority of these nodules are benign, corresponding to goiters or adenomas, and only a small fraction corresponds to carcinomas. Among thyroid tumors, the diagnosis of fol
Previous studies have demonstrated frequent loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of markers on chromosome arm 10q in both follicular thyroid carcinomas (FTCs) and follicular thyroid adenomas (FAs). A novel tumor suppressor gene, PTEN, has been mapped to 10q23.3 and is the susceptibility gene for Cowden synd
