title: Lipoblastoma with aberration in the long arm of chromosome 8.
abstract: We report a case of lipoblastoma in a 6-month-old girl with a new chromosomal aberration, 46, XX, der (2) add (2) (p23) del (2) (q33), add (8) (q1?). In addition to the patient's age and pathological features, aberration of long arm of chromosome 8 in lipoblastoma can assist the differential diagnosis from myxoid or well differentiated liposarcoma.
