Comparative Genomic Hybridization in Pineal Germ Cell Tumors
1 Sept 2000
Abstract excerpt
Fifteen primary pineal germ cell tumors (8 germinomas, 4 mixed teratomas-germinomas, 2 immature teratomas, and 1 yolk sac tumor) and 2 recurrences of the yolk sac tumor were studied by comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). An average of 1.8 chromosomal changes per germinoma (0.5 gains vs 1.3 losses), 5.5 per mixed teratoma-germinoma (3.0 gains vs 2.5 losses), 3.5 per immature teratoma (2.0 gains vs 1.5...
