Abstract excerpt
It is not universally agreed whether gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are phenotypical variants of leiomyomas (LM) and leiomyosarcomas (LMS), or whether they belong to a separate phenotypic entity with a different genetic background. This is a summary of our published results from comparative genomic hybridization studies performed in order to solve this question. We studied DNA copy number changes in 32...
