Leiomyoma of the urinary bladder: a cytogenetic study of a case.
We report the first case of a leiomyoma of the urinary bladder studied by cytogenetics. In comparison with cytogenetic changes of leiomyomas of other sites, the karyotype of the tumor was unusual: 47,XX,+7/89 approximately 93,XXXX,-1,+7,+7,add(12)(q23.4),+add(12)(q23.4),-18,-21,+idic(21)(p11.2),-22.
