Involvement of chromosomes 6 and 11 in a soft tissue chondroma

Cancer Genet Cytogenet. 1997 Feb;93(2):177-8. doi: 10.1016/s0165-4608(96)00173-2.

Abstract

Cytogenetic analysis of a soft tissue chondroma revealed monosomy 6 and rearrangement of chromosome 11. Previously described 12q13-q15 involvement was not found. Aberrations of chromosomes 6 and 11, however, have been reported before in this type of benign cartilaginous tumor.
