title: Chromosomal aberration in lipoblastoma: a case with 46,XX,ins(8;6)(q11.2;q13q27).
abstract: Chromosomal aberrations involving 8q11.2 have been reported in lipoblastoma. We report here a case of lipoblastoma with new chromosomal aberration. 46,XX,ins(8;6)(q11.2;q13q27). Cytogenetic analysis would facilitate the clinical differentiation between myxoid liposarcoma and the pathologically similar lipoblastoma and the identification of genetic loci related to cellular growth.
