Structural chromosomal abnormalities in gynecologic malignancies.
Surgical specimens taken from four patients with gynecologic malignancies were cultured, and metaphase chromosomes were prepared after staining with chromamycin-A, distamycin, and DAPI. Four specially selected karyotypes and their structural aberrations are discussed in this study and compared with those (also from carcinomas) previously described in the literature.
