Meningiomas: karyotypes and histological patterns

C Lopez-Gines et al. Clin Neuropathol. 1989 May-Jun.

Abstract

The cytogenetic findings, based on G-banding, in six meningiomas are reported. Normal karyotypes were found in three cases and monosomy of chromosome 22 in the remaining three. In one of these three cases, a malignant meningioma, several chromosomes were lost, gonosome Y included. The possible significance of the association of chromosome alterations in meningiomas with the histology of the tumor and its biological aggressivity is discussed.
