Small cell carcinomas (SCCs) represent a rare histological subtype of urinary bladder cancer. Little is known abut the genetic alterations in these tumours. To identify chromosomal aberrations that are typically present in SCC of the urinary bladder, ten tumours were analysed by comparative genomic

We have analyzed 26 tumors from 12 patients with metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma by comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). Primary tumors and their lymph node metastases from five Dukes' C patients as well as primary tumors and their liver metastases from seven Dukes' D patients were used to
In an attempt to identify chromosomal abnormalities that may be associated with a metastatic phenotype, we investigated the pattern of chromosomal gains and losses in 66 node-positive and 63 node-negative primary breast carcinomas. For both subgroups of tumours, losses were more common than gains an
## Abstract Intratumor heterogeneity in chromosomal aberrations is believed to represent a major challenge in the treatment of cancer. The aim of our work was to assess the chromosomal heterogeneity of advanced cervical carcinomas and to distinguish aberrations that had occurred at a late stage of
## Abstract The order of appearance of different genetic aberrations during the shift from diploidy/near‐diploidy to aneuploidy in colorectal cancers is not yet clear. We studied genetic alterations in flow cytometrically‐sorted DNA diploid and corresponding aneuploid epithelial cell populations fr
