## BACKGROUND. Chromosomal abnormalities in some lymphomas are associated with a poor prognosis. Trisomy 12 and deletions of chromosome 13 have been described in small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). To determine whether chromosomal aberrations could be detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization (F
Deletions of the long arm of chromosome 6 (6q) are among the most frequent chromosome aberrations in malignant lymphomas and often occur as secondary changes in addition to typical translocations, such as t(14;18). Using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with two YAC probes hybridizing to 6q
## BACKGROUND. Mantle cell lymphoma can be difficult to differentiate cytologically from other small cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Nevertheless, the distinction is important, because mantle cell lymphoma is more aggressive than other small cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas. The purpose of this study was to
