Novel t(1;3)(q21,p21) translocation in a basal cell adenocarcinoma of the parotid gland: potential association with tumorigenesis.

Abstract excerpt

We report a rare translocation involving chromosomes 1q23 and 3p21 regions in a basaloid salivary carcinoma. Our case together with a previously reported instance of translocation involving chromosome 1q 21-24 region defines a specific chromosomal segment that may house a gene associated with the development of a subset of basaloid salivary tumors.
