title: Different karyotypic abnormalities, t(1;6) and del(7), in two uterine leiomyomas from the same patient.
abstract: Cytogenetic studies of two uterine leiomyomas from the same patient revealed different karyotypic changes. Both tumors showed only a single chromosome abnormality; one had t(1;6)(q23;p21) and the other del(7)(q21.2q31.2). These findings support the view that multiple leiomyomas of the uterus arise independently.
