Cytogenetic and FISH analyses of pancreatic carcinoma reveal breaks in 18q11 with consistent loss of 18q12-qter and frequent gain of 18p.

Chromosome 18 was analysed using a banding technique and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in 13 pancreatic carcinoma samples. The cytogenetic analysis revealed that chromosome 18 abnormalities were present in all cases and that several different rearrangements, such as translocations, delet...
