[Chromosome anomalies in 2 cases of human ovarian cancer]

Cytogenetic analysis of two human ovarian adenocarcinomas show identical specific anomalies. These two tumors exhibit, in all the analysed mitosis, a paracentric inversion of chromosome 3 and a translocation between chromosomes 2 and 5. A relationship between these markers and the location of human oncogenes on chromosomes 2, 3 and 5 should be considered.
