Abstract:
A case of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) that was investigated with a broad spectrum of cytogenetic and molecular cytogenetic techniques is reported. The results of cytogenetic studies, interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization, comparative genomic hybridization, and spectral karyotyping (SKY) are reported. Various structural chromosomal aberrations were identified, among which aberrations involving chromosome arm 2p were especially frequent. Using SKY, six translocations not previously described in GBM are reported.
