| Abstract: | A boy with a brain metastasis of an Askin's tumor was investigated. Cytogenetic studies revealed a near-diploid karyotype with monosomies of chromosomes 5 and 22 in the presence of a derivative chromosome der(5)t(5;22)(q35;q11). In particular, no involvement of chromosome 11 was seen. |
