Translocation (7;21) in a lipoma.
Cytogenetic analysis was performed on a solitary lipoma from the flank of a 38-year-old male. A translocation t(7;21)(p22;q11.2) was found as the sole clonal chromosomal abnormality. The results are discussed in relation to other cytogenetic abnormalities found in benign adipose tumors.
