Abstract

We report the cytogenetic and histopathological findings in a 7-year-old female child with an intranasal tumor that is most consistent with a parachordoma. Karyotypic analysis of the tumor revealed clonal numerical and structural chromosome abnormalities. Seven cells displayed recurrent changes: der(2)t(2;4), del(3q), and the loss of chromosomes 9, 10, 20, and 22. Four cells showed a loss of chromosome 17. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first clonal chromosome abnormalities described in parachordoma.
