摘要
We applied a comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) technique to paraffin-embedded tissue samples taken from fibroadenomas, benign breast tumors, to detect possible numerical and unbalanced genetic changes. We compared the results to those from previous cytogenetic studies of fibroadenomas. In concurrence with previous cytogenetic studies of fibroadenomas, we detected genetic aberrations in chromosomes 4-6, 8-13, 16, 18, 19, 20, and 22. In addition, with the CGH technique we were able to find two new aberrations, 15q+ and 16p-. Because these aberrations have also been reported to be present in breast cancer, the importance of this finding is yet to be determined. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
