Cytogenetic analysis of a rare case of pediatric myxolipoma.
A cytogenetic analysis was performed in a rare case of big toe myxolipoma derived from a 3-year-old girl. We found in all metaphases analyzed a trisomy 19 and a tetrasomy 1q. The breakpoints of chromosomes 1 were localized in the region p12-p13. None of the chromosome abnormalities usually described in lipomas, were observed.
