The Cytogenetics of Bone and Soft Tissue Tumors

by Avery A. Sandberg

This text contains a compilation of chromosome findings on bone and soft tissue tumours. The book indicates the specificity of these changes and their relation to distinct pathologic entities; it also emphasizes the use of cytogenetic findings as part of the diagnostic approach for these tumours and as a guide for molecular biologists searching for the specific gene involved. Each chapter contains a comprehensive summary of the pathology of the tumours, particularly those in which cytogenetic findings have been published.
