Abstract excerpt
Near-haploidization, that is, loss of one copy of most chromosomes, is a relatively rare phenomenon in most tumors, but is enriched among certain soft tissue sarcomas, including undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS). Presumably, near-haploidization can arise through many mechanisms. This study aimed to identify gene rearrangements that could cause near-haploidization. We here present two UPS in which...
