The i( I2p) chromosome has been shown to characterize more than 80% of male germ cell tumors (GCTs) and is an important diagnostic marker. Although recent cytogenetic analyses of GCTs have defined nonrandom chromosome abnormalities in these tumors, no attempt has so far been made to compare i( I2p)-

The clinical ciiurse ot bladder cancer i s not predicted by histological criteria alone. Mutation dt p53, usually accompanied by allelic loss on the other chromosome 17p, lids been implicated as a prohmostic parameter in several tumors, including hladder cancer. We therefore examined 153 bladder can
