PURPOSE: Monosomy 3 (M3) and abnormalities of chromosome 8 associate with poor prognosis in uveal melanomas (UM). Although M3 has been the subject of more in-depth studies, none have intensively focused on chromosome 8. To elucidate the potential role of chromosome 8 abnormalities, array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) was performed on primary UM. METHODS: A specifically-designed custom high-resolution...
