Angiomyxolipoma shares cytogenetic changes with lipoma, spindle cell/pleomorphic lipoma and myxoma
Abstract
Angiomyxolipoma is a rare variant of lipoma, two cases of which have recently been described. We report on the hitherto unreported clonal chromosomal changes of a third case of angiomyxolipoma. The karyotype showed a 46,XX,t(7;13)(p15;q14),t(8;12)(q13;p13)[17]/46,XX[3]. The involvement of 13q14, 12p13, and 8q13 supports a relationship with other types of benign lipomatous and myxoid tumors.
