Higher Percentage of FISH-Determined Monosomy 3 and 8q Amplification in Uveal Melanoma Cells relate to Poor Patient Prognosis
17 Mar 2012
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To investigate the relation between patient survival and incrementally increasing percentages of fluorescence in situ hybridization-determined complete loss of chromosome 3 (monosomy 3) and gain of chromosome 8q in primary uveal melanoma cells. METHODS: Clinicopathological factors were related to disease-free survival. Fluorescence in situ hybridization was performed using probes on chromosomes 1, 3, 6,...
