Translocation (12;13) in a case of infantile fibrosarcoma

Cytogenetic analysis of an infantile fibrosarcoma showed the presence of a t(12;13) and numerical changes of chromosomes 15 and 20. Until now only non-random gain or loss of total chromosomes as well as one case with a deletion at 17p have been reported for this kind of tumor. This report represents the first cytogenetic description of an aggressive infantile fibrosarcoma with a translocation.
