Abstract
We report the cytogenetic findings of two cases of fibrous dysplasia, one occurring in the tibia, the other in the sphenoid. Both cases exhi bited only one chromosome change: a t(6;11)(q15;p15) in the first case , a derivative chromosome 2 in the second. The previous cytogenetic re port on fibrous dysplasia revealed only numerical changes. The signifi cance of these inconsistent chromosomal findings in fibrous dysplasia is unclear.
