Abstract

Deletion of the short arm of chromosome 7 at 7(p13p14) has been occasionally reported in non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma (NHL). The inclusion of this abnormality within the list of nonrandom changes awaited further data. We report three partial deletions of 7p with breakpoint at 7p13, found in various subtypes of NHL, and one deletion covering these bands (7p11 to 7p15). The association of 7p- with other chromosomal changes in the same NHL suggests that partial 7p deletion is a nonrandom secondary abnormality.
