Abstract:
In six cases of meningiomas, a karyotype with monosomy 22 and telomeric associations has been observed. The histopathological and cytogenetic correlations showed that the tumors with these chromosomal abnormalities were of a fibroblastic type and presented a certain degree of anaplasia. The relationship between telomeric association and malignancy is discussed.
