title: i(12p)-negative testicular germ cell tumors. A different group?
abstract: Cytogenetic analysis was performed of three seminomas, two primary nonseminomas, and two mature residual teratomas following chemotherapy, all lacking i(12p). Testicular germ cell tumors without an i(12p) may represent a subgroup of germ cell tumors, also in their clinical course, compared with those having i(12p).
