We present a patient with multiple anomalies and severe developmental delay. A small supernumerary ring chromosome was found in 40% of her lymphocyte cells at birth. The origin of the marker chromosome could not be determined by GTG banding, but fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) later identif
Literature on the cytogenetics of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is limited; only I0 cases with chromosome aberrations have been reported. They are karyotypically characterized by the presence of supernumerary ring(s), either as the sole cytogenetic abnormality or together with a few additio
