Abstract
We report the cytogenetic findings in 5 cases of myxoid liposarcoma following short-term culture. In all 5 tumors a t(12;16)(q13;p11), characteristic of the myxoid form of liposarcoma, was observed. Trisomy 8 was present in two tumors as the only additional change and in a third in addition to other abnormalities. In the other two tumors the t(12;16) was present as the sole change. Three other myxoid liposarcomas with trisomy 8 as an additional aberration have been reported, suggesting that it could represent a non-random secondary event in these tumors.
