Cytogenetic analysis of ependymoma and teratoma of the ovary.
Cytogenetic analysis was performed on G-banded chromosomes from short-term cultures established from surgically removed tumor material from two patients. A karyotype of 56, XX, +5, +7, +7, +8, +13, +13, +18, +19, +20, +21 was found in one ovarian ependymoma. The grade 3 immature teratoma showed a karyotype of 47,XX, +3.
