| Abstract: | We report the cytogenetic findings in nine hemangiopericytomas studied after short-term culture. Clonal chromosome abnormalities were present in four cases. One case had a simple translocation (12;19)(q13;q13.3) as the sole abnormality whereas complex and multiple chromosomal abnormalities involving almost all chromosomes in the complement characterized tumors from the three other cases. |
