Abstract excerpt
Chromosomal aberrations are independent prognostic markers in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Recent studies using genomic arrays have shown recurrent gains of the short arm of chromosome 2 (2p) in a subset of CLL. We evaluated 178 CLL cases for 2p gains using custom-designed oligonucleotide array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH). A high frequency of 2p gains was observed in 53 of 178 (30%)...
