Translocation (2;15)(p23;q21.2) and interstitial deletion of 7q in a case of low-grade myxofibrosarcoma.
We describe a case of low-grade myxofibrosarcoma with the karyotype 46,XX,t(2;15)(p23;q21.2), del(7)(q?11.2q?22). Only six of these tumors have been previously studied and all were cytogenetically different.
