Translocation (7;7)(p13;q21) in a Wilms' tumor.
Reports of single chromosome aberrations in Wilms' tumors are rare, with most tumors being characterized by multiple complex karyotype aberrations. An 11-month-old female patient with Wilms' tumor and a derivative chromosome 7 resulting from t(7;7)(p13;q21) as the sole cytogenetic aberration is described.
