Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Despite numerous studies, the tumor biology of pleomorphic adenomas, the most common salivary gland tumors, is still not completely defined. In order to identify further candidate genes important for tumor biology of pleomorphic adenomas, extended cytogenetic and molecular analysis are mandatory. METHODS: We performed a detailed molecular cytogenetic analysis using comparative genomic hybridization...
