Abstract excerpt
Ovarian mature cystic teratomas (MCTs) originate from post-meiotic germ cells. Conventional methods such as karyotyping or short tandem repeat-polymorphism analysis may be used to better classify MCTs, although such data would be insufficient. The aim of this study was to elucidate the origin of ovarian MCTs using B allele-frequency (BAF) plots of single nucleotide polymorphism array data. MCTs can be classified...
